ENERGY EFFICIENT KINDERGARTENS IN BELGRADE: CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF GOOD PRACTICE OF COMPETITION SOLUTIONS IMPLEMENTATION

The paper critically analyzes the process of realization of energy efficient kindergartens in the city of Belgrade whose solutions are obtained in the open public urban architectural competition. The process initiated, financed and realized by the city government of the City of Belgrade is an example of an effort toward meeting the EU directives and achieving the Energy Community objectives in the field of energy efficiency and usage of renewable energy sources, where facilities for public use must lead and be examples of the best practice. The whole process is analyzed, starting from planned conditionality of urban-architectural competition announcement through special conditions concerning energy efficiency and usage of renewable energy sources to construction and use of zero energy kindergartens, with a special analysis of the energy efficiency parameters of one of the kindergartens chosen as a representative of a good practice of competition solutions implementation of energy efficient facilities for the public use.
