Prel. scheduled hours: 44
Rec. self-study hours: 116

  Area of Education: Technology

Main field of studies: Energy and Environmental Engineering

  Advancement level (G1, G2, A): A

Aim:
The overall aim is to understand an overall perspective of energy planning when new neighborhoods are developed or renovated. The purpose of this course is to study and analyze techno-economic assessment of potential energy-saving potential for the cluster of buildings. After the course the student should be able to:
  • apply methods for techno-economic assessment of potential for energy savings and energy simulation of building clusters.
  • formulate long-term energy strategy for developing energy master plan of neighborhoods.
  • assess whether to renovate existing buildings or construct new buildings.
  • identify energy services for comprehensive energy renovation of the cluster of buildings.
  • mapping of planning and decision processes
  • describe interaction between the district energy systems and surrounding energy systems
  • integrate the energy planning of district development and urban planning
  • identify barriers and drivers as well as policies and instruments for the implementation of cost-effective energy efficiency measures.


Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered)
Building Energy Systems. Modelling of energy systems.

Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.

Supplementary courses:
Strategic development of sustainable energy systems, Policy instruments in energy systems.

Organisation:
The course is given in the form of lectures, seminars and simulation laboratory work.

Course contents:
To examine the interaction between the district energy system and the surrounding energy systems for the implementation of cost-effective energy efficiency measures. Energy efficiency strategies and energy services, innovative and highly effective combination packages of ECM for selected building clusters, business models (EPC) for renovation of neighborhoods. Decision processes as well as policies and instrument. Energy systems analysis, energy analysis of clusters of buildings and life cycle cost analysis are performed with the tools Modest, Opera and IDA respectively. An assignment that consists of several sub-tasks is also included in the course.
