The project

EPC4SES is a project taking the diverging landscape of EPC in Europe, adding utility to EPC and thus introducing a new way for convergence and improvement of EPC quality. The project will co-develop applications with stakeholders, whilst securing privacy by design pairing building data. The best-ranked model-based prediction applications will be implemented as research prototypes using real data from the three pilot regions Andalucía, Berlin and Salzburg/Vienna, to quantify impacts and effort when erecting virtual twins of building pairs or quarters.

WTG'S OBJECTIVES

  • Exploitation of the data available to calculate the performance of energy certificates.
  • Develop a system capable of continuous and real time monitoring of the status of the main energy consumption elements of the different piloting scenarios.
  • Develop a robust, efficient and expandable communication architecture and add new nodes with minimal cost.
  • Translate the multiple types of data obtained and quantify in an automated and intelligent way the optimal energy demand required.
  • Increase knowledge and experience in the design, development, calibration and implementation of specific sensors for energy and thermal monitoring.
  • Develop a new type of digital prediction models.
  • Implement a business methodology based on IaaS (Informationas a Service).
  • Implement in the system the ability to analyze and interpret the data obtained, so that the user can understand them easily.

EXPECTED BENEFITS

  • Reduction of the impact of CO2 emissions derived from heating / cooling systems.
  • Decarbonization and optimization of local energy supply systems.
  • Improved incentive planning for renovation and refurbishment of buildings.
  • Optimization of the use of renewable technologies at the air conditioning level.
  • Improvement of energy transmission in smart grid systems.
