Motivation and aim Ø Hospitals use energy in very different fields – which leads to various opportunities of energy saving Ø Hospitals are public facilities and can serve as role models Ø For the hospitals energy saving also means cost reduction Ø Demonstrate how environmentally friendly energy sources can be used and energy can be saved, shown by best practice examples energy efficiency becomes a quality feature Health Care Without Harm Europe: Cleaner Energy Strategies in Hospitals Webinar 17 th December 2014 Annegret Dickhoff
BUND label “Energy saving hospital “ 2014: Hessische Berglandklinik Koller, near Marburg The BUND label “ Energy saving hospital” is an award for outstanding commitment of hospitals in the fields of energy saving and climate protection 43 hospitals in Germany have received the BUND label since 2001 Health Care Without Harm Europe: Cleaner Energy Strategies in Hospitals Webinar 17 th December 2014 Annegret Dickhoff

The effect of the “Energy saving hospital“ (2001 to 2014) For the environment … Ü 68,500 tons CO 2 per year Ü 22,000 MWh/a electricity This corresponds roughly to the average annual output of 6,650 households with 4 people in Germany Ü 140,000 MWh/a heating This corresponds roughly with the annual heating for 1,0036,000 square metres (households) For the budget of the labelled hospitals … Ü up to 2.1 Mio. Euro/a can be saved in a hospital Ü more than 20 Mio. Euro/a were saved in all 43 hospitals with BUND label Health Care Without Harm Europe: Cleaner Energy Strategies in Hospitals Webinar 17 th December 2014 Annegret Dickhoff
• funded : federal ministry of environment ("Nationale Klimaschutzinitiative") • timeframe : 2014 until end of 2016 • partner : viamedica foundation • focus : low- and no-cost measures for energy saving Health Care Without Harm Europe: Cleaner Energy Strategies in Hospitals Webinar 17 th December 2014
KLIK – Goals Ø use energy saving potential in hospitals Ø qualification of 50 climate managers Ø creation of an internal network in every hospital Ø preparation of an online guidebook Ø publication of a " KLIK data base " with examples of best practices Ø reduction of CO 2 -emissions of at least 30,000 t (10 % per house) – through non- and low-investment measures Ø this means energy cost reduction of about 6–10 % per clinic Health Care Without Harm Europe: Cleaner Energy Strategies in Hospitals Webinar 17 th December 2014 Annegret Dickhoff
KLIK – Course of the project support by project partners results online-guidebook organisational: questionnaire structural analysis professional: 1 training 50 climate managers qualification 4 regionalised groups professional and organisational: telephone support KLIK data 2 workshops CO 2 - saving base final workshop 4 regionalised groups measures final conference CO 2 - reduction of 30,000 tons 2014 2016 through non- and low-investment measures Health Care Without Harm Europe: Cleaner Energy Strategies in Hospitals Webinar 17 th December 2014 Annegret Dickhoff
Criteria for climate managers Ø a climate manager should be … ˃ well anchored in internal hospital structures ˃ ideally a person (with a leading position) in one of the departments: - administration - technical management - quality management - controlling or IT Ø and should have … ˃ an affinity for climate protection issues ˃ authority to decide / “have a say” Health Care Without Harm Europe: Cleaner Energy Strategies in Hospitals Webinar 17 th December 2014 Annegret Dickhoff
KLIK in action Ø Steps to be taken: ˃ Foundation of network of supporting colleagues ˃ Overview of energy consumption ˃ Compilation of an action plan for energy saving measures ˃ Compare experiences on implemented measures and status quo in workshops ˃ Documentation of progress ˃ Presentation of final results Health Care Without Harm Europe: Cleaner Energy Strategies in Hospitals Webinar 17 th December 2014 Annegret Dickhoff
