Municipality of Log–Dragomer

The Municipality of Log–Dragomer, a young and small Slovenian municipality, gained national recognition by receiving the “Gazelle among Municipalities 2009” award, honouring municipalities that demonstrate outstanding progress in economic performance, efficiency, and demographic potential.

The municipality is home to the historic Stara šola Log (Old Log School), originally built in 1929. The building, which also includes residential premises, is protected as a cultural heritage site. Following a comprehensive energy renovation initiated by the Municipality of Log–Dragomer in 2018, the building now serves as the municipal headquarters.

As the project represented a major investment for a municipality of this size, additional financing was required to complete the renovation. In 2019, the municipality successfully applied for co-financing under the project “Revitalisation of the Stara šola Log Building” and secured funding from SID Bank through the Loan Programme for Comprehensive Energy Renovation of Public Buildings.

“As a public sector entity, the municipality invited financing offers from several commercial banks. Among all the proposals received, SID Bank’s offer was by far the most favourable. Thanks to the friendly and highly professional support of SID Bank’s team, the process from loan approval to disbursement was quick and straightforward.”

The renovation comprehensively upgraded the building’s energy performance and overall condition, improving energy efficiency, maintenance, and building management while reducing emissions. Most importantly, it created better working and living conditions for its users.
By co-financing the “Revitalisation of the Stara šola Log Building” project, SID Bank supports energy-efficient building renovations and the responsible use of energy, helping improve quality of life while reducing environmental impacts and carbon emissions.

Miran Stanovnik, Mayor of the Municipality of Log–Dragomer:
“With the help of this financing, we were able to complete a project of great importance to our municipality on time. We would certainly recommend this source of financing to other municipalities, as it provides an excellent opportunity to implement strategically important municipal projects.” 

"With the friendly and highly professional support of SID Bank’s experts, the entire credit approval and disbursement process was quick, efficient, and hassle-free."
