13 SEAP CONCLUSSIONS Work on : - Transport (35% of the global consumption). - Residential buildings (37% of the global consumption) - Tertiary building (27% of the global consumption) Work on Private and Commercial Transport (97% of the global transport consumption (MWh) Promoting sustainable campaign and low emissions vehicles. Diesel is the energy source more used in transport. The most important final energy consumption in Tertiary Buildings is electricity foment self-consumption (photovoltaic, cogeneration ). The most important final energy consumption in Residential Buildings is natural gas foment energy efficiency.

15 Street lighting CITELUM 2006 the Street Lighting Master Plan was approved In 2012 more than 6 million euros were invested, sensors and monitor system were installed, some lamps have a movement sensor installed. So we manage lighting as smart as possible. We ve reduced, 28,4% energy consumption, more than 76% of lighting pollution has been reduced and 1,652 Tn of CO2 have been avoided.

16 Energy management Of públic buildings DALKIA since 2007 within a ESCO company we ve modernized energy production equipment of all 62 buildings. We ve implemented technological devices to make them more efficient and we can monitor them (Tª, H,..) we ve reduced energy consumption more than 32%, we ve saved 1,100,000 and 3,198 Tn of CO2 emissions have been avoided Monitoring of the Building s installations.

17 With the new contract in 2011 we took the opportunity to modernize all machinery and add sensors to all containers. We ve implemented a continuous improvement plan that allow us to adjust the service to the real needs and pay only for the services supplied. We can measure the quantity and quality, so the monthly invoice is generated by us.

18 ENERGY POVERTY Pilot project This project has been developed in Las Planes neighborhood, just in the middle of Collserola Natural Park, it aims to improve the wellbeing of citizens that can t afford the energy bill. The project consists in the energy refurbishment of non efficient houses with unemployed people from the neighborhood, so it s both sustainable and a social smart project. The project includes not only the improvement of the houses but also monitoring the health indicators of their inhabitants, they ve been blood tested several times; prior, during and post the refurbishment.

19 LOCAL PLAN FOR ENERGY REFURBISHMENT OF BUILDINGS We ve signed an agreement with the Politechnical University of Catalonia, Architect School, which is located in Sant Cugat. The aim of the agreement is to analyze more than 35,000 houses in order to design the long term strategy to develop in the coming years till The strategy will deploy 48 scenarios, each of them will match the different variables that set the feasibility of the energy refurbishment according to the use, kind, possibility to act and energy consumption of them.

20 This project has received funding from the European Union s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement no

21 This project has received funding from the European Union s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement no NewTREND seeks to improve the energy efficiency of the existing European building stock and to improve the current renovation rate by developing a new participatory integrated design methodology targeted to the energy retrofit of buildings and neighbourhoods, establishing energy performance as a key component of refurbishments The NewTREND platform will be a tool for collaborative design allowing evaluation of different design options at both building and district level through dynamic simulations via a Simulation & Design Hub. Design options, including district schemes and shared renewables will be presented to the design team, together with available financing schemes and applicable business models, in a library which will build on lessons from past and ongoing R&D projects

22 CHESS-SET UP This project has received funding from the European Union s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement no The project objective is to design, implement and promote a reliable, efficient and profitable system able to supply heating and hot water in buildings mainly from renewable sources. The proposed system is based in the optimal combination of solar thermal (ST) energy production, seasonal heat storage and high efficient heat pump use. Heat pumps will be improved technically in order to obtain the best performace in the special conditions of the CHESS-SETUP system. The used solar panels will be hybrid photovoltaic and solar thermal (PV-ST) panels, which is a promising solution for also producing the electricity consumed by the heat and water pumps of the heating system and part of the electricity consumed in the building. Hybrid solar panels are a key element to achieving energy self-sufficiency in buildings, especially in dense urban areas where the roof availability is one of the most limiting factors. Also will be considered the integration of other energy sources as biomass or heat waste, to make the system suitable for any climate conditions. The project will also explore the possibility to integrate the system with other electricity or cooling technologies (solar cooling, cogeneration).

28 Work places distribution The Building was designed to foster a collaborative way of working, that s why there re few offices and most of the people work in a open space sharing resources. Existing workplaces in the building: 448 FLOOR -1: 35 workplaces. Storage archive, Education, Office, Reprography, Conciergeses office PLANTA 0: 74 workplaces Citizens attention, City Mapping, Politicians Offices PLANTA 1: 76 workplaces Mayor Office, Press, Procurement Department, Manager, Legal Department PLANTA 2: 124 workplaces RRHH, Financial Department, Culture, Sports PLANTA 3: 129 workplaces Urban Planning, Urban Quality and Sustainability

29 BUILDING DISTRIBUTION (4 plants of the 6 existing) Entrance floor 1st floor 2nd floor 3rd floor

30 Installation management before DSS: The production climate system has two machines located on the roof of the Building The main one is a three cycle one, producing simultaneously cold water for cooling and hot water for heating. The second one works helping the main one to cover all the cooling needs during the hottest months. Each floor has several air-conditioner (AHU) for each zone fed by the engines on the roof, all of them are regulated by a sensor controlling the temperatura in the return air duct.

31 Installation management before DSS: The Building has a BMS to control the switch on/off and regulate light and climate. We can choose from different schedules and set point temperatures for each zone. We only were able to regulate temperature zone by the sensor installed in the return air duct, it means that there were a gap between the return temperature and the real zone temperature. One of our goals was to bridge the gap.

32 Optimus DSS implementation: 30 multisensors have been installed in the building measuring temperature, CO2 level and humidity 14 humidifiers have been installed Frequency controllers have been installed regulated by the new zone temperature sensor Up to date the BMS version and installing it into the server allowing a better way to reach the data Programs from the BMS were modified to let the air regulation according to the CO2 levels Control and manage the energy consumption and new data sensors installed by a new scada (Energea monitoring system) The DSS will be incorporated as a tool to be used in others EU Projects we' re involved (NewTrend, R4E Roadmaps for Energy, Chess-set up), and specially in the local plan for Energy refurbishment of buildings (both public and private) we' re developing right now.

Scheduling the set point temperature AP3. Scheduling the on/of of the heating and cooling system. AP4. Management of the air side economizer AP5. Scheduling the PV maintenance. AP6. Scheduling sale/consumption of the electricity produced through the PV system. Problems to be solved: - Thermal comfort complaints due to the set point temperature and air flows in different zones, and adapt it to the TCV. AP2 - Reduce the energy consumption to the real needs of the building. Using in an appropiate way the outdoors conditions to precool the building.ap3 - Improvement of the air quality in the building using the most efficient management of the installation, linking CO2 and HR levels with the set point temperature and out conditions proposing free cooling when feasible or making and smart regulation of the amount of outdoor air to be supplied. AP4 - Make the most of the energy production selling and buying when allowed in our country but in the meantime use the AP6 to shift the load when possible to charge our e-vehicles. AP6 - Improve the performance of the PV installation. AP5
