Abstract or SummaryIt's called “Project Green Hospital” and is the initiative implemented by the USL Tuscany Southeast to make more efficient and friendly hospitals. The center of this activity are the management and the reduction of consumption of heat and energy and the attention for the illumination.
The USL 8 of Arezzo, newly merged in the Company USL Tuscany Southeast, has implemented a structured project of energy efficiency, called “Project Green Hospital”, which involved at first the hospital establishments covered by the ' company provides: Arezzo, Valdarno, Bibbiena, Sansepolcro and Cortona and then was extended to other properties: Districts Social and Health, Polyclinics, RSA, Houses of Health.The main action that was performed is the installation of cogeneration of electricity and heat fueled by methane gas in the Hospitals of Arezzo and Valdarno (the two most important Hospitals in terms of energy consumption) through which itr is possible today to self-produce internally to the hospital about half the electrical energy of which the two hospitals require. At this intervention was followed by the energy upgrading of thermal power plants of 5 hospitals, which in three cases (Bibbiena, Sansepolcro, Cortona) has seen the passage of thermal aging plants steam / hot water to new central hot water with modern boilers and burners modulating whilst in the other two (Arezzo, Valdarno) saw the change of obsolete hot water boilers with new high efficiency combined with modulating burners. A 47 kWp photovoltaic system at the Hospital of Arezzo has been installed and have started procedures to entrust the work to build one 50 kWp at the Cortona Hospital.They were then upgraded the refrigeration units of Arezzo and Bibbiena Hospital replacing the antiquated refrigeration units with new high efficiency condensates groups in magnetic levitation water (Bibbiena) and condensate in the air (Arezzo). It was then made effective the domestic hot water system through the traditional system boyler to a plate heat exchanger system (Bibbiena, Sansepolcro, Valdarno).
This for 5 hospitals, other properties (Social Health Districts, outpatient clinics, RSA, Houses of Health) have been carried out interventions to improve energy efficiency of thermal power stations by installing condensing boilers (Ex Motherhood - Arezzo) or thermal units energy efficient (other properties). At the Hospital of Arezzo he is about to be implemented a project, called illumination, for the reduction of the electrical consumption due to the lighting bodies. Activities that was implemented across the board to all properties is putting in place a contract of high-performance energy service that allowed our company to significantly reduce thermal energy consumption compared to past spending.

Long description Hospital properties require enormous amounts of energy for their operation and at the same time they produce significant amounts of CO2. The USL Tuscany South East Company has implemented the nationally-awarded 'green hospital' project, which was funded by the Ministry of the Environment at 80%.
The hospitals of the former Asl 8, now confined to the USL Tuscany South East Company, are now all “painted” green. After Arezzo and Valdarno the ecological and economic turnaround has come to the so-called periphery hospitals: the entire thermal energy production system of the Santa Margherita Hospital in Cortona has been completely refurbished, making it highly efficient and performing thanks to modern equipment conception that provide the same levels of thermal comfort and service with lower fuel consumption. Altogether 650,000 € have been invested in energy renovations in the hospitals of Cortona, Bibbiena and Sansepolcro, which will reduce energy costs by around 125,000 € each year, with a return on investment of around 5 years.
Not to mention that money for these interventions has not been distracted by health investments since the intervention was funded 80% by the Ministry of the Environment with a special fund for energy efficiency in virtuous public administrations. But not enough: a 50 kW photovoltaic plant has been inaugurated at Fratta by the summer, which will provide clean energy for the Hospital of Valdichiana. In this case the cost of the intervention is 115,000 € and the economic savings of 14,000 € each year, so with a return time of about 8 years. “These interventions - explained the CEO of USL Toscana Sud Est Enrico Desideri - demonstrate on one hand that the Company is committed to ensuring health care levels with an ever greater focus on the environment and reducing energy costs through the now famous “Green Hospital Project” and “the peripheral hospitals” the USL Company invests in professionalism and considerable resources: almost 800,000 € only in energy efficiency and renewable sources ”.
“With the work done at the Cortona Hospital, run by RTI Cpl Concordia / Manutencoop FM SpA under the direction of Ing. Riccardo Valdarnini - said Gilberto Cristofoletti, Technical Director of ASL - closes a major cycle in which the 5 thermal power plants of the hospitals of the Azienda Sanitaria Aretina have been energetically upgraded and thanks to the cogeneration plants realized in Arezzo and in Valdarno which has been guaranteed the auto-production of 50% of the electricity that each year our company needs with considerable economic savings. ” “With this new plant - said Daniele Days, Energy Manager of Asl - costing a total of 170,000 €, we can yearly reduce the primary energy consumption of 27.23 tons of oil equivalent with significant environmental savings.”

THE NEW THERMAL CENTER OF CORTONA FRATTA OSPEDAL
The energy upgrading of the thermal power plant of the Fratta di Cortona Hospital, carried out under the management of the Energy Service for the USL Company, has replaced the obsolete superheated water heat generators with new, high-efficiency, energy-efficient hot water generators to modulating burners. A modern, high energy efficiency steam generator was also installed. Of course, the numbers in the game are remarkable: the power of the new thermal power plant is about 3,000 kWt.

NOT ONLY VALDICHIANA: FURTHER WORK TO SANSEPOLCRO AND BIBBIENA
In Bibbiena and Sansepolcro were replaced the old and inefficient steam generators. In fact, the thermal centers of the two hospitals were conceived with centralized steam production logic, its distribution within the hospital structure and many local hot water productions with heat exchangers. A logical operation that is poorly energy efficient, abandoned in favor of new high-energy hot water generators combined with modulating burners. In Bibbiena, a new high-efficiency refrigeration unit has also been built to replace a salient machinery with low energy yields.

AWARD “GREEN HOSPITAL” PROJECT
These works are important chapters in the book of the “green hospital” written by the Asl Technical Department. A project acknowledged by the National Public Administration Forum with the “Best Practice Public Heritage Award” and, as said, with a Ministry of the Environment Ministry with a three million-euro loss fund. Three years have passed since the start of the project, but this is still an intermediate step. There are other goals to achieve. Among the first, the “illumination” project (almost all lighting systems will be gradually replaced with LED lamps and automatic shutdown systems) and, as already mentioned, the construction of a 50 kW photovoltaic plant at the Fratta Hospital Cortona.
