2 What is SportE 2 What is SportE 2. SportE 2 will develop an approach, methodology, and technologies dedicated to energy savings in sport facilities. The main result will be a modular and scalable intelligent building management system ready for market deployment. It will have a ROI of less than 5 years and will target 30% energy and carbon emissions reductions. Another outcome will be knowledge, best practices, and guidelines that can be used by anyone. Start date: Sep 10 End Date: Aug 13

3 Main Ideas & Motivation Sport facilities consume massive amounts of energy and there are a lot of them in Europe INDOOR: OUTDOOR: EUROPEAN SPORT FACILITIES INDOOR: OUTDOOR: Some of these structures are very exciting INDOOR: INDOOR: OUTDOOR: OUTDOOR: Also, sports facilities are unique: In their energy demand profiles (timing and peaks) Usage patterns (long periods of low use and then short periods of high use sporting event) Comfort and ventilation requirements Facility characteristics (e.g. swimming pools, indoor courts, saunas) In how they are owned and managed (public and private) They can encompass large open spaces (multiple buildings, complexes, parking areas, lighting, etc.)

4 Main Ideas & Motivation Also if we get this right, we won t just be saving energy, we will be CHANGING BEHAVIOUR

5 Background The European Project SportE 2 Energy Efficiency for European Sport Facilities is bringing the concept of fitness from our bodies to our buildings. It is important, the dimension of the EU Sport and Recreation Building Stock is around 1 million and half buildings and it represents about the 8% of the overall EU 48 Buildings Sector. Because the building sector represents 40% of Europe's energy consumption, developing ICT enabled energy savings solutions for this key sector will help Europe meet its targets EUROPEAN SPORT FACILITIES Sports facilities are unique in their energy demand profiles (timing and peaks), usage patterns (long periods of low use and then short periods of high use sporting event), comfort and ventilation requirements, facility characteristics (e.g. swimming pools, indoor courts, saunas, large open spaces, indoor and outdoor lighting, g, etc.). Theseaspects present the opportunity andneedforintelligent energy management actions.

6 Objective SportE aims at managing and optimizing the triple dimensions of energy flows (generation, grid exchange, and consumption) in Sport and Recreation Buildings by developing a new scalable and modular BMS based on smart metering, integrated control, optimal decision making, and multi facility l management. This tool will enable a new relationship and business model structure between facility managers and power providers. The SportE modules will be applicable to both new and existing structures and answer the fundamental questions of how, where, when and why energy is produced, used and grid exchanged.

7 Concept SportE 2 How Smart Metering Provides the capability for owners and managers to understand d how energy is being consumed by the facility. If we want to make better energy management decisions then better information is required. To have and make use of this type of information the following are required: a sensor network, communication capabilities, a database, data processing, data management, and a way to access and interact with the information. SportE 2 When Integrated t dcontrol Provides facilities with integrated control capabilities. In specific, this module will provide the software, hardware, and user interface that enables the control and management of lighting, g heating, cooling, indoor air quality and ventilation, cogeneration, and renewable energy production. Paired with the How Module, it becomes possible to enact energy management decisions from a centralised location when there is a data supported reason to do so.

8 Concept SportE 2 Why Optimisation i i Given smart metering data and the ability to control facility energy flows, it becomes possible to execute optimal energy management decisions. Over time and as data is collected, the Why Module will learn how a facility is operating, why current practices are not optimal, and what control actions will lead to energy savings, looking at energy prices, weather forecasting, and the planned facility usage. SportE 2 Where Multi Facility ili Management Many stakeholders own or manage more than one facility or perhaps a complex is made of multiple buildings. For these users, the Where Module will provide a multi facility management tool that will collect, analyse, and display energy demands, consumption, production, and grid exchange across multiple facilities against common metrics (e.g. kwh/m, /m, kg CO2, etc).

9 Results How SportE 2 will make an IMPACT By opening a market for ICT based customized solutions integrating numerous products from different vendors and offering services from design of integrated systems to the operation and maintenance phases. Market, Client, and Product Oriented Customised solutions through 4 scalable modules Ability to integrate with existing systems on site Replication Plan Development for EU wide implementation Through the establishment of a collaboration framework between the ICT and buildings and construction sectors aimed at exploiting opportunities for the development of ICT based systems in compliance with the Energy Performance BuildingsDirective. Direct links to E2B and ECTP platforms Consortium integrates whole value chain ICT Enabled Energy Audits and Assessments Development of business models and market analysis Through the radical reduction of energy consumption and CO2 emissions, in line with the policy framework for facilitating the transition to an energy efficient, low carbon economy though ICT. Up to 30% of Energy Saving Up to 30% Emission reduction Maximum 5 year ROI Case studies available for bench marking (Italy, Portugal, Spain)

10 With SportE 2, you can Visualise energy consumption profiles, to include when energy is consumed Identify y trends that don t make sense which may be a function of non optimal operation or poorly maintained equipment Determine if your energy contract is right for you Control your facility from one central station Implement manual or automatic control actions Develop intelligent decision making strategies. If it will rain tomorrow or if the facility will be empty or full should you be doing something different? Develop alert conditions and alert avoidance strategies Optimise facility energy management decisions Benchmark against past performance or other structures Develop facility specific performance indicators View and manage multiple facilities from one central station Save energy, reduce emissions, save money, save time

11 The Consortium to Realise the Idea: TEAM SportE 2 Italy: Engineering Consulting Studio di Architettura ed Ingegneria Italy: Green Design / Architecture Portugal: Smart Metering Greece: Building Management Systems Spain: Research Centre / Tech Group Italy: University (Mechanical, Thermal Measurements, Testing) Italy: Sport tfacility Owner Portugal: ESCO Spain: Sports Facility Manager (17 facilities).
