Under the new European regulations, it becomes a necessity and a priority for Romania to take adequate political, legislative and administrative measures to stop the decline of the centralized heat supply systems. The energy efficiency is the most cost-effective and fastest growing method to improve security of energy supply, reduce energy loss and costs, and greenhouse gas emissions which are responsible for global warming. Cogeneration, notably high efficiency cogeneration and the improved performance of the centralized heat supply systems have a key contribution to the improvement of energy efficiency. In this regard, at the Municipality of Bucharest, steps have been taken to achieve the Heat Supply Public Service in Bucharest - production, transport, distribution and supply through an integrated centralized heating supply system (S.A.C.E.T.) (S.A.C.E.T. - C.T.E.S.S. - Centralised Thermal Energy Supply System), aiming to improve the performance of the Public Service in terms of energy and respectively economic efficiency, at the same time creating the basis for the settlement of debts accrued by the Public Service Operator - Bucharest District Heating Company (RADET Bucuresti S.A.), to its heat supplier - S.C. Electrocentrale Bucuresti S.A. (ELCEN) through its subsidiary Electrocentrale Bucuresti. |
