Dataset Information

Improving energy performance of buildings: Dataset of implemented energy efficiency renovation projects in Latvia.

ABSTRACT: This article includes data collected from public and private buildings in Latvia as part of several projects/tenders funded from the governmental Climate Change Financial Instrument (KPFI) of Republic of Latvia. The data provided consists of information on 445 projects, the activities performed therein, as well as numerical data on CO₂ emission and energy consumption before and after the projects' implementation. Data cover a period from 2011 to 2020 for various types of buildings. Given the amount, the completeness and the accuracy of data accompanied by qualitative and quantitative information on the funded projects, the datasets could be relevant for evaluating the energy efficiency of the implemented activities and the levels of CO₂ and energy reduction. The reported figures could be used for further research on the field of energy performance of buildings and buildings' refurbishments. They could be also taken as case studies by other buildings that plan to implement similar actions.

Project description:Considering that the largest part of end-use energy consumption worldwide is associated with the buildings sector, there is an inherent need for the conceptualization, specification, implementation, and instantiation of novel solutions in smart buildings, able to achieve significant reductions in energy consumption through the adoption of energy efficient techniques and the active engagement of the occupants. Towards the design of such solutions, the identification of the main energy consuming factors, trends, and patterns, along with the appropriate modeling and understanding of the occupants' behavior and the potential for the adoption of environmentally-friendly lifestyle changes have to be realized. In the current article, an innovative energy-aware information technology (IT) ecosystem is presented, aiming to support the design and development of novel personalized energy management and awareness services that can lead to occupants' behavioral change towards actions that can have a positive impact on energy efficiency. Novel information and communication technologies (ICT) are exploited towards this direction, related mainly to the evolution of the Internet of Things (IoT), data modeling, management and fusion, big data analytics, and personalized recommendation mechanisms. The combination of such technologies has resulted in an open and extensible architectural approach able to exploit in a homogeneous, efficient and scalable way the vast amount of energy, environmental, and behavioral data collected in energy efficiency campaigns and lead to the design of energy management and awareness services targeted to the occupants' lifestyles. The overall layered architectural approach is detailed, including design and instantiation aspects based on the selection of set of available technologies and tools. Initial results from the usage of the proposed energy aware IT ecosystem in a pilot site at the University of Murcia are presented along with a set of identified open issues for future research.
