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 />

<strong>for</strong> public lighting fell by 25.6%. The share <strong>of</strong> electricity<br />

consumption <strong>for</strong> public lighting in 2008 was 1.5% <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><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
