TERMMING, a member of the ENGIE Group, was awarded the project for the operation of the heat management system in the Bratislava – Nové Mesto district in June this year. Since 1 July, it has taken over the operation of all technological equipment. The ENGIE Group has committed to invest over EUR 4.5 million in the first five years of operation as part of the modernisation of the heat management system.
ENGIE launched a pilot project in Slovakia last year to test the NODA system. This system was deployed in the thermal management in Pezinok. The aim of the project is to optimise heat production and distribution, optimise the fuel mix and reduce fuel and operating costs. A few months of operation have brought the first measurable results in the form of fuel mix optimisation.
SPP has extended the contract for maintenance and operation of its facilities and equipment with ENGIE Services for a further 3 years. ENGIE, which has been providing technical property management services for SPP since 2008, has thus seamlessly built on several years of successful cooperation between the two companies.

The awards were presented to the representatives of the winning student teams at the Green Business Club event, in the presence of the Vice Dean of the Faculty of Architecture Ing. Michal Brašeň, ArtD. and other guests from the academic environment and the business sphere.
ENGIE Services was also a partner of the professional conferences Facility Management Days 2019 and EnergyCamp 2019 in May and June this year. ENGIE was actively involved in the programme of both conferences by participating in similar lectures on the topics of digitalization in the energy sector, the advantages of using energy management and optimization of heat production and distribution in the thermal management.
The billing invoice consists of an invoice (tax document) and an annex in which the costs are broken down (data on the customer’s consumption, the proportion of the house’s consumption in relation to the total consumption, a graphical representation, information on the heat meters).
On 28 February 2019, the international ENGIE Group presented its strategic goals for the next 3 years. Its main ambition is to be a world leader in energy transformation with the goal of achieving zero emissions.
At the end of last year, ENERGY Distribution, a member of the ENGIE Group in Slovakia, purchased the assets and technologies of the local distribution system (LDS) at the Nová Hodvábka site in Senica with the aim of developing its energy distribution activities in Slovakia. This year, it is planning its extensive modernisation, which will result in the construction of an unmanned transformer station and more efficient operation.
Last year ENGIE became part of the pilot programme for youth training “SUSTAINABILITY AMBASSADORS”, organised by the Slovak Green Building Council (SKGBC). The two-year project, which involved more than 120 students from 4 schools in Bratislava, was launched by the organiser at the beginning of the 2018/2019 school year. The aim of the programme is to work systematically with secondary school students and prepare them for their future careers through theoretical and practical knowledge and skills in the field of sustainable development.
In the metropolis of eastern Slovakia, AZOR, as the new owner of the building, has been reconstructing the multifunctional centre on Hlavná Street since June this year.
