| 703 | City of Warsaw | 31185 | Poland | Warsaw | C40 | 2013 | Energy Supply > Combined heat and power | Energy Supply | Combined heat and power | Cogeneration is especially well-developed in the Warsaw area. Taking into account that cogeneration saves 30-37% of coal, this method gives our metropoly 3,5 TWh of energy annually. If not for this, separate production of heat and electricity would lead to additional emission in Poland of 1.5 mln t CO2 a year. The heat from cogeneration is used in Warsaw central heating system, one of the largest in Europe – 1700 km of main pipes, 75% of city demand satisfied. Cogeneration becomes even more beneficial when it is based on renewable energy sources. Therefore, share of biomass combusted in Warsaw CHPs is to increase | (52.2296756, 21.0122287) | (51.919438, 19.145136) | |

| 705 | City of Warsaw | 31185 | Poland | Warsaw | C40 | 2013 | Transport > Improve fuel economy and reduce CO2 from motorized vehicles | Transport | Improve fuel economy and reduce CO2 from motorized vehicles | In Warsaw we have created an “E-Mobil Cluster”, which is aimed at environmentally-friendly transport, including electric and hybrid vehicles. It is an example of joint initiative of scientific institutions, local government, associations and companies operating in Warsaw area, which are willing to create platform initiating development of innovative technologies, giving room for demonstration programmes and tools for their implementation. The “E-Mobil” Cluster currently has 18 members, combining potential of 3 sectors: science and research, private business and public administration. The coordinator is the Warsaw University of Technology, while Warsaw remains the only municipality belonging to the Cluster. By joining different potentials of the City of Warsaw, academic institutions, car companies and energy companies, what allows for synergy effect, we hope to maximize the end results of our actions. In the long run, in accordance with worldwide trends, we plan to support envisaged wide implementation of hybrid, and in the next phase purely electric vehicles – in the meantime the measure which is more realistic from financial standpoint to be quickly adopted on wider scale are buses powered by gas: CNG (compressed natural gas)/LNG (liquid natural gas), with possible utilization of biomethane. | (52.2296756, 21.0122287) | (51.919438, 19.145136) | |
