Energy efficiency represents the central element of the EU transition towards a resource-efficient economy and the fulfillment of Romania's National Strategy for Sustainable Development 2030.
Lighting represents 14% of total electric energy consumption in Europe and 19% of total electric energy consumption worldwide.
The ENERGY EFFICIENCY domain covers the entire spectrum of energy consumption in the urban environment: from high-performance buildings (NZEB, NZEB+, BMS — Building Management Systems) and smart public lighting with telemanagement, to low-emission mobility (electric vehicles, charging infrastructure) and industrial energy optimization solutions. We integrate these technologies into unified projects, aligned with European decarbonization requirements.
Areas of Expertise
Ecological public lighting with telemanagement
Energy efficiency of public and residential buildings
Energy efficiency of commercial spaces and office buildings
Integrated energy consumption management software platforms

Energy Efficiency
Energy efficiency of buildings is a top priority, given the poor quality of most existing constructions. On the other hand, the costs related to thermal rehabilitation of a building are lower than the costs related to installing additional thermal energy capacity for heating.
In Romania, energy consumption for the population sector is at 40% of the country's total energy consumption.

European Funds
The Engine of Smart Community Development
In the period 2021-2030, the European Union will allocate significant amounts for investments in renewable energy production and storage capacities, energy efficiency, modernization and expansion of electricity networks and other energy sectors. The implementation of these projects was planned in the context of the European Union's energy efficiency and decarbonization policies and objectives.
Investments in the energy sector will also be supported through the Operational Programmes (OP) for the 2021-2027 period, with implementation until 2029. In this regard, there are financial allocations through the Just Transition OP (2 billion euros, for the transition to a climate-neutral economy), Sustainable Development OP (4 billion euros, of which approximately 850 million euros for the energy sector) and Regional OPs.
The European Union has committed to leading the energy transition globally, by meeting the objectives set out in the Paris Agreement on climate change, which aims to provide clean energy throughout the European Union.

Public Lighting
Public lighting is essential for road safety, public space safety and the urban atmosphere of a city.
The effects of public space lighting can make cities and communities more attractive, as well as commercial and cultural centers, highlighting attractive local landmarks or emphasizing the atmosphere during important public events.
Public Lighting Service Development Strategy
Public lighting is essential for road safety, public space safety and the urban atmosphere of a city.
The public lighting service development strategy must have as its main mission the organization, modernization, efficiency of the public lighting service, raising the level of civilization, comfort and quality of life, increasing the degree of individual and collective security, road and pedestrian traffic safety.
The Urban Scope team, dedicated to designing intelligent lighting systems, has adopted a systematic approach based on the maximum energy efficiency indicator and minimum costs for our clients from the public or private environment.
A GOOD PUBLIC LIGHTING PROJECT CAN REDUCE TOTAL COSTS FROM 40% UP TO 70%

Urban Scope offers you a turnkey solution for energy efficiency of buildings of any type, our experts being qualified to provide you with the best solutions to recover your investments in the shortest time possible.
ENERGY CERTIFICATE
The energy certificate prepared by our specialists provides important data regarding the energy performance of the building such as: insulation system, ventilation system, heating, air conditioning, domestic hot water.
ENERGY AUDIT
The energy audit is the operation that consists in determining the thermotechnical and functional characteristics of buildings and installations, for the purpose of energy evaluation. The energy audit and expertise form the basis for issuing the Energy Performance Certificate.
Urban regeneration integrates energy efficiency
Regeneration projects include essential energy efficiency components — thermal rehabilitation, intelligent lighting systems, and green infrastructure for a sustainable urban environment.

Another source of funding for energy efficiency projects is the energy efficiency programme for public buildings, managed by the Environmental Fund Administration. With a total budget of 280 million euros in the current year, this programme is addressed to local administrative units.
Improving the thermal insulation of the building envelope (exterior walls, windows, joinery, upper floor, basement floor), roof structures and coverings, including building consolidation measures;
Rehabilitation and modernization of installations for the preparation and transport of heating agent, domestic hot water and ventilation and air conditioning systems, including passive cooling systems, as well as the acquisition and installation of related equipment and connection to centralized heating systems, as appropriate;
Using renewable energy sources to ensure the thermal energy needs for heating and domestic hot water preparation;
Implementation of energy management systems aimed at improving energy efficiency and monitoring energy consumption (e.g. acquisition and installation of smart systems for promoting and managing electricity);
Replacing fluorescent and incandescent lighting fixtures with high energy efficiency and long-life lighting fixtures;
Any other activities that lead to the fulfillment of project objectives (replacement of elevators and electrical circuits – stairs, basement, dismantling works of installed equipment, facade repair works, etc.);
Development of energy efficiency strategies (e.g. CO2 reduction strategies)
