Municipal greenhouse gas emission inventories have been
carried out with the KASVENER model, developed by SYKE
for the Association of Finnish Local and Regional
Authorities
Cutting emissions brings cost
savings!

Example: A district heating plant and network has reduced
oil consumption in Padasjoki. The district heat is produced
mostly by burning wood chip.
• Cost savings are
200 000 € annually
• The emission reduction is
600 t CO2 annually
