Resumo: | In the European region, more specifically in the Mediterranean area, most of the public authorities need to enhance their institutional capacity in the field of Energy Efficiency (EE) and use of Renewable Energy Sources (RES) to contribute to the Energy Performance of Buildings and the Energy Efficiency Directives, developing solutions adapted to various regional contexts. In the national context, there is a clear pressure for energy independence and decarbonization, which inevitably pass through the in- crease of ambition regarding the target for Energy Efficiency. The work developed within this dissertation focuses on the collection and application data be- longing to the buildings of LNEG (State Laboratory of Energy and Geology), Arruda dos Vinhos Munic- ipality, and AREANATejo (Regional Energy and Environment Agency). For this analysis, 22 public build- ings were selected to identify the priority interventions to improve energy efficiency and optimize energy uses, evaluating their effectiveness in terms of energy savings, reduction in CO2 emissions, and return on in-vestment (ROI). The goal, after testing the tool, was to support the definition of a local action plan that could support the drafting of the city’s Sustainable Energy and Climate Action Plan. This study is framed with the follow-up project – PrioritEE PLUS, recently funded by INTERREG MED, whose focus is the testing of the PrioritEE Decision Support Tool (DST). The data to be inserted in this tool comes from the buildings' Energy Performance Certificates, encompassing a diversity of end users from local authorities. Given the results of the prioritization analysis of improvement measures suggested by the DST, the most recommended renovations to be implemented, resulting from the savings felt by the decision makers as well as from the energy performance of the buildings, are the substitution of the floors, as well as the replacement of the windows. The results allow to understand which type of buildings have more energy performance deficien- cies within the clusters under analysis and, through this sample, to give municipalities this sectorial knowledge to integrate into their Energy and Climate Action Plans, which in many situations is required to apply for funds and funding. |

Existe, no contexto nacional, uma pressão clara para a independência energética e para a descarbonização, que passam inevitavelmente pelo aumento da ambição relativa à meta para a eficiência energética. O trabalho desenvolvido nesta dissertação foca-se no recolhimento e aplicação dos dados per- tencentes aos edifícios do LNEG (Laboratório Nacional de Energia e Geologia), edifícios pertencentes à municipalidade de Arruda dos Vinhos, e os edifícios pertencentes à AREANATejo (Agência regional de Energia e do Ambiente). Para esta análise, foram selecionados 22 edifícios públicos de forma a identificar as principais intervenções a serem priorizadas por forma a melhorar a eficiência energética, e a otimizar a utilização da energia, avaliando a sua eficácia em termos de economia de energia, redução de emissões de CO2 e retorno sobre o investimento. O objetivo, após a ferramenta ser testada, é o de dar suporte à criação de um plano de ação local que possa ser convertido a um porterior Plano de Ação para a Energia Sustentável e Clima. Este estudo enquadra-se na extensão do projeto recentemente financiado pelo INTERREG MED, denominado PrioritEE Plus Project, cujo principal foco é a utilização da ferramenta Decision Support Tool (DST). Os dados a serem inseridos nesta ferramenta advém dos Certificados Energéticos de cada edifício e, neste sentido, terá de existir do utilizador uma prévia análise e extração de informa- ção do mesmo. Como resultado da análise de priorização de medidas de melhoria sugeridas pela ferramenta DST, as renovações mais recomendadas a serem implementadas, decorrentes das poupanças senti- das pelos decisores bem como pelo desempenho energético, são as interveções associadas ao pavi- mento bem como a substituição dos vãos envidraçados. Desta forma, perante os resultados obtidos, é possível entender-se que tipo de edifícios apre- sentam mais carências de performance energéticas dentro dos clusters em análise e, através desta amostra dar aos municípios este conhecimento sectorial para integrar os Planos de Ação de Energia e Clima, que, em muitas situações são necessários para concorrer a fundos e a financiamento.Aelenei, LauraGouveia, JoãoRUNSilva, Raquel Ourives da2023-12-07T12:40:00Z2023-052023-05-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/160968enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-03-11T05:43:35Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/160968Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T03:58:13.752408Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
