Capacity building in Smart and Innovative eNERGY management

Module 13 - Ground Source Heat Pump GEOFIT Pilot

Summary: University of Galway recently completed a ground source heat pump project as part of the EU-H2020 project GEOFIT. This module will explain the experiences and lessons learned of this pilot. From the design consideration using specialized software, the calculation of the load profiles, to the hydronic design options and analysis methods. The design exercise is put into contrast with the practicalities of budgeting, procuring, and executing the construction works.

Module 12 - Valuation Methods for Energy Efficiency

Summary: When considering energy retrofit investment, a easy and quick method to assess financial feasibility is to consider capital investments (CAPEX) against energy savings. There is little consideration of the increase in value that the upgrades will bring to the building. This added value is difficult to assess, but it is an important effect that needs consideration and has deep financial implications. The EU has already highlighted the importance of a more comprehensive valuation and risk assessment method that reflects this value in order to unlock private investments.

Module 11 - Simulink for Building Energy Modelling

Summary: This module is a practical tutorial of the use of MATLAB and SIMULINK as simulation tools for energy efficient building operation. A complete walkthrough of the software and explanations of the different libraries and modules is provided in a hands-on session. This software is a state-of-the-art tool ecosystem with proven capabilities to flexibly accommodate most mathematical and numerical methods for energy modelling and multi-domain building operational problems. The modelling style of the software is equation based with a graphical block editor.

Sustainable Places (SP2023, 14-16 June 2023), Madrid, Spain

Sustainability targets and climate change objectives cannot be met without addressing buildings and the built environment at the building, district and urban scale to include our transport and energy infrastructures. Renowned for showcasing results coming out of the EU Horizon 2020 and EU Horizon Europe Framework Programme via the participation of cutting-edge research and innovation projects, the scope of the Sustainable Places Conference is captured directly in its name.
