Objectif thématique: B.4 Protection de l’environnement, adaptation au et atténuation du changement climatique
Priorité: Priorité B.4.3 Soutenir les rénovations énergétiques économiquement rentables et innovantes en fonction du type de bâtiment et des zones climatiques, en mettant l’accent sur les bâtiments publics
Brève description du projet : In the Med Basin energy efficiency goals are still far from achieving EU 2020 targets. A common challenge is to increase the share of renewable energy, particularly in public buildings (40% of the EU’s total energy consumption) intended as demonstrators of Public policies. The short-medium term challenge appears to be the development of more efficient measure and service to integrate technological investments with the empowerment of local communities, oriented to produce an active citizens engagement toward sustainable goals. Even if public investments in energy saving characterized the last years and included a deeper attention on technologies and plants, the consideration on the relation between users and usage models of public buildings had not been delivered . The project looks at improving the impact for energy saving investments in public building through an active involvement of local communities.
Objectifs principaux – problèmes à traiter: The overall objective of the proposed project is to improve capacities of public authorities to plan and implement sustainable energy policies and operative investment plans. This goal implies the capitalization of smart ICT technologies, innovative cooperation model (PPPPs), energy lab approach for participation and trust-building among operators and decision makers and final users.
Résultats attendus: We expect to maximize the effective impact of energy saving investments already realized by the partners through the promotion of citizens sustainable behavior as a result of a community empowerment process. Such result includes: the improvement of actual energy management procedure in paying attention to the role of end user, to allow the skills of public building management staff through energy labs, results assessment through ICT platform and low-cost sensor, to promote sustainable behavior.
