KPI ENERGY EFFICIENT CAMPUS: TOOLS AND RESEARCH METHODS

Abstract

Creation  and  development  of  organizational  structure  for  managing  campus  energy consumption  and  enhancing  responsible  consumer  behavior  through  their  involvement  in  operational activities. The engineering aspects of an energy management system formation for various types of end  consumers  are  considered.  General  scientific  methods  of  analysis  and  synthesis  are  used,  specific methods (grouping, comparison, generalization), technical and economic analysis, experimental methods. Results.  Reducing  the  total  consumption  of  energy  resources,  as  well  as  cash  costs  for  their payment; creation of a tool base for research work; improving the quality of educational services, engaging
students in energy audits. Scientific novelty. An integrated approach to in-depth analysis and planning of energy consumption was  developed,  the  procedure  for  assessing  the  energy  efficiency  of  buildings  taking  into  account temperature, weather and operational factors was improved. The  practical  significance.  Proposals  for  creating  an  energy-efficient  campus  using  modern technologies  and  innovative  solutions  for  energy  supply,  energy  monitoring,  energy  management  are presented.  The  educational  goal  of  the  project  is  to  attract  students  to  the  process  of  creating  and implementing real innovative energy supply projects using the example of the campus where they study. This will create an environment with comfortable conditions for research, education and life. Realization of the complex project "Smart Network" will show how it is possible to create a modern energy efficient platform based  on  the  existing  old  building  stock  using  modern  technologies  and  innovative  solutions  of  energy supply, energy monitoring, energy management.
