Project Details
Description
will need to use less energy and operate in a smart way, by meeting the needs of building owner and the local energy system. Yet, 73% of Danish houses are conventional buildings equipped with energy meters lacking IoT enabled devices.
However, the dynamic heat data will be obligatory collected by smart meters (SM) for every building connected to district heating grid from 2027. The FOREFRONT project hypothesizes that by developing a novel approach to building performance assessment and optimization based on the real-time data from SM, this new smartness can be beneficial for the building owner in meeting the energy efficiency
goals and for the energy sector in increasing the efficient utilization of buildings' storage capacity for network balancing.
Project is funded by Independent Research Fund Denmark - Green Transition (Danmarks Frie Forskningsråd (DFF), tematisk forskning -Grøn omstilling)
