1 This project has received funding from the European Union s FP7

2 Partners This project has received funding from the European Union s FP7

3 Our vision Our vision is to design, develop and deliver a smart Decision Support System (DSS) as an integrated web-platform which helps local authorities to show the best energy saving opportunities available in public buildings. As permanent bodies that plan for the long term, local authorities are uniquely placed to play a significant role in achieving the EU 2020 targets and enabling a shift towards a low carbon economy and a cleaner, more sustainable environment. The DSS will work by collecting and structuring real- time open data sets from five domains, namely: weather conditions, social mining, buildings energy profiles, energy prices, energy production. At the same time, the system will take into account de-centralised renewable energy production, connection with the smart electricity grid and integration with smart district heating and cooling grids and other renewable energy sources. By combing real-time data with this integrated information on energy sources and systems the OPTIMUS DSS, will enable local authorities to produce short-term energy plans and implement an overall more responsive sustainable action plan to energy use for their buildings, venues and stadiums. This project has received funding from the European Union s FP7

4 Work structure OPTIMUS will follow four broad stages over the three years that it is taking place. This includes the development of a framework used to carry out a baseline assessment of the city s current energy situation; the system development of the DSS; the pilot scheme which is to take place in three cities across Europe and finally the dissemination of how to use the DSS in your cities through a series of local workshops. This project has received funding from the European Union s FP7

8 Task 4.1 Application of Smart City ex-ante Assessment Framework on the cities Comparative Analysis (3/5) Zaanstad Pilot Has an adequate level of target for The efforts made so far are not sufficient. The energy mix used leads to high CO 2 emissions and energy cost. RES (Geothermal) have been introduced but the system does not work properly. The adoption of ICT and automations is unbalanced towards comfort rather not energy efficiency. The existing systems are not exploited adequately.
