2 About us ENEA is the Italian National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and Sustainable Economic Development It is a public RTO (Research and Technology Organization) operating in the fields of energy, environment and new technologies to support Country s competitiveness and sustainable development ENEA s mission is to develop new technological solutions to meet the societal challenges, fostering transition to the low carbon economy The institutional mandate of the Agency is to disseminate and transfer knowledge, innovation and technology to industry, institutions and civil society at large

3 Activities ENEA mainly operates to promote and carry out basic and applied research and innovation activities: Research: basic, mission-oriented, applied and industrial research, also through development of prototypes and product industrialization Technology Transfer: dissemination and transfer of research results to industry and exploitation for production purposes Advanced services: studies, measurements, tests and assessments to both public and private bodies and enterprises Training and information: activities aimed at broadening sector expertise and public knowledge and awareness

10 Our activities in Ispra Project Lumière PELL Percorso Alternanza Scuola Lavoro Liceo Scientifico Bari Project Brescia Smart Living Smart Basilicata

11 The PELL Project Lumière is a project aimed at promoting both energy and operative efficiency in Public Lighting. The objective is to apply, at a national level, a new way of managing lighting facilities and services that takes into account technological progress and the actual needs of the environment, the territory and the citizens. The Public Energy Living Lab (PELL) is a territorial network and infrastructure integrating technical data with facility consumption information. PELL is composed of a software platform operating in two steps: It collects, organizes and processes technical and facility consumption data using the Lumière data collection form and provides consumption monitoring through a Smart Meter. Making use of key performance indicators, it checks, assesses and validates the facility operation and upgrading project suggested solutions with the relevant intervention costs. The software platform could also be used to monitor other public energy-intensive services, such as confined lighting and energy consumption in public buildings.
