followed by district heating (26%) and natural gas (19%).<br />
Extra light heating oil has a 12% share.<br />
The specific annual primary energy requirement <strong>for</strong> energy<br />
supply in buildings managed by <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Ljubljana</strong> is 528<br />
kWh, which causes 0.14 tonnes <strong>of</strong> CO 2 emissions per capita<br />
in <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Ljubljana</strong>.<br />
The costs <strong>of</strong> energy supply <strong>for</strong> buildings are estimated at<br />
approximately €7,500,000 <strong>for</strong> 2008, or 2.5% <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> total<br />
realised expenditure <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>City</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Ljubljana</strong>.<br />

The largest number <strong>of</strong> industrial enterprises belong to<br />
<strong>the</strong> food production and metal products group. The<br />
highest use <strong>of</strong> energy carriers is typically in paper and<br />
paper products manufacturing (24.4%), production <strong>of</strong><br />
pharmaceutical raw materials and products (20.2%) and<br />
<strong>the</strong> production <strong>of</strong> chemicals and chemical products
