Andalusian Energy Agency

Constituted as a government-owned entity assigned to the Regional Ministry of Economy, Innovation and Science, with competences in the energy area.

OBJECTIVES

Basic: To obtain the optimisation of the Autonomous Community of Andalusia´s energy supply in energy, economic and environmental terms

Strategic: To engage the Andalusian society so that it permeates the need to use energy efficiently and maximise the use of renewable energies

Main objectives 2013:

• 18.3% of Renewable Energy Sources

contribution with respect to Primary Energy

consumption

• 8% of Primary Energy saving with respect to

2006.

• 1% reduction of energy intensity compared to

2006

Renewable Energy: Primacy of Renewable Energy

INCENTIVE SCHEME for the sustainable energy development of Andalusia.

Aimed at subsidising investments that allow the energetic improvement in the consumption and generation of energy in any sector. Action lines:

REPAYABLE FUNDS for the promotion of renewable energies and energy effiicency.

Fund for ordinary loans, in market conditions, preferably for SMEs.

Financial tools

Energy saving and efficiency

Renewable energy facilities

Facilities of energy use

Energy audits

Energy infrastructure

Energy saving and efficiency projects

Categories of projects included:

Energy saving and effiiciency projects in processes or equipments

Energy saving and efficiency projects in buildings and their facilties

Energy saving and efficiency projects in exterior lighting facilities

Energy saving and efficiency projects in transport

Substituting traditional fuels for other less polluting fuels

With these projects, a decrease of the energy consumed in the processes or productive equipment of the companies, buildings or energy consuming installations thereof, exterior lighting facilities, or

transportation of persons or goods, is obtained.

Renewable energy installation projects

Categories of projects included:

Electricity production

Production of thermal energy

Joint production of electricty and thermal energy

Production and/or logistics of biomass and biofuels

Projects in which using natural renewable resources like wind, solar radiation or biomass, energy is generated as heat or electricity.

PROSOL Programme

Projects of energy use facilities

Categories of projects included:

Cogeneration projects

Use of residual heat

Energetic valuation of non biomass residues

Projects that obtain a greater energy efficiency in industrial production or in the use of energy, by using residual heat or cogeneration.

Projects of energy studies and improvement of the infrastructure

Studies for energy saving

Studies for the implementation of renewable energies

Energy audits and consultancy

Diffusion actions

Actions that facilitate decision-making to make investments in energy, through energy audits or viability studies, for the incorporation of renewable energies and to obtain improvements in energy savings.

Secondary transportation networks and gas distribution

Distribution networks of electricity power

Distribution networks of thermal energy

Improvement of the energetic infrastructures like the extension, development or improvement of the networks of transport and distribution of gas, of the infrastructures and distribution of electric

power or the development of distribution networks of thermal energy.
