The Successful Introduction of Energy Efficiency in Higher Education Institution Buildings
Abstract The conditioning of buildings equals 40% of the energy consumption and is responsible for 36% of the greenhouse gas emissions (within the EU). Given that a complete renewal of the existing building stock would take about 100 years, investing in energy efficiency (EE) in existing buildings is crucial to reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. In addition, besides energy reduction and energy flexibility also the transition towards sustainable and renewable sources is important. In this study, we report the EE potential and the financial scenario, obtained from Energy Quick Scans (EQS) for a higher education institution. The introduction of an Energy Performance Contract (EPC) with the help of an Energy Service Company (ESCO) is also discussed.
