Smart monitoring system for energy performance in public building

Abstract

Real time information become an usual way for common citizen to access and use data coming from own information systems. This imply new issues for ICT application in main fields and domains such as ‘energy efficiency’, sustainability, energy management. According to the growing interest in energy saving as a relevant component of territorial sustainability we developed an application based on open-source technologies providing real-time open data of energy consumptions. This hw-sw system can be oriented to individual householder needs, such as to industrial purposes and public ones. The paper discuss the preliminary results of the application of such technologies on public schools building in an integrated project linking usage model of public spaces to citizens behaviours and consciousness concerning sustainability. Outcomes could influence territorial policies and projects in the framework of EU 2020 strategy and Covenant of Majors.
