22. “OPTIMUS Rating Chart” supports the classification according to the rating resulted from the analysis, based on the following linguistic term set: Results can be presented transparently; Are easily understood by the experts, since the SCEAF main outputs are words; Include also the numerical value that depicts the difference between the numerical value and the index of the closest linguistic term (no loss of information). S = {s 0 = Insignificant (I), S 1 = Very Low (VL), S 2 = Low (L), S 3 = Medium (M), S 4 = High (H), S 5 = Very High (VH), S 6 = Optimus (O)} OPTIMUS Rating Chart (2/3) Task 1.2 Task 1.2 Development of Smart City ex-post and ex-ante Energy Assessment Framework (SCEAF)

26. In a Nutshell (1/4) Associated deliverable: D1.3 User Preferences (delivered) Objectives Task 1.3 Task 1.3 Users Requirements Overall description To collect, through a systematic way, all the user requirements, involving all end-users and stakeholders (e.g. city authorities, citizens, energy companies, other stakeholders, etc) to their needs, opinions and ideas of innovation, concerning the project. To define the main desired characteristics from a pioneer Smart Cities DSS that, through the use of intelligent tools & stored knowledge, will have as purpose to be a beneficial and supportive of their effort to optimize the energy use in their premises and reduce CO 2 emissions

27. Questionnaire #1: Focused on collecting data from pilot sites it has been developed in the form of web questionnaire to fulfil. The aim of this questionnaire is to obtain a normalized description of each pilot. Questionnaire is focused on identifying targeted end-users too. Questionnaire #2: Focused on identifying expected DSS outcomes. The questionnaire is designed to be fulfilled by phone interview, and extends the information released from questionnaire #1. Questionnaire #3: Focused on identifying the set of requirements required to be fulfilled by OPTIMUS subsystems to achieve the outcomes identified in questionnaire #2. Questionnaire #3 is designed to guide development works in WP02 and WP03 Task 1.3 Task 1.3 Users Requirements In a Nutshell (2/4) Requirements Collection methodology:

29. Focused on identifying visual layout and content of the outcomes to be delivered by the DSS. The “Mock-Up” and the second questionnaire are complementary in terms that the Mock-Up shows how the information required from the DSS functionalities is going to be presented to end-users Task 1.3 Task 1.3 Users Requirements In a Nutshell (4/4) Mock-Up development:

30. Overall picture of pilots’ automation and monitoring level Definition OPTIMUS’ desired functionalities for each pilot OPTIMUS’ analytics graphical interface definition (Mock- Up) Definition of requirements for WP02 modules in order to satisfy desired functionalities Task 1.3 Task 1.3 Users Requirements Main achievements

31. Forecast: The need of forecasting has been raised as the factor that is currently not very included in the energy management. Forecasts of energy demand, of upcoming extreme temperatures, of the cost of energy consumption have, among others, been identified as factors that, helping to anticipate actions, lead to energy savings and help to the effective conduction of the management task. Schedule: Municipalities expect help in the planning of activities being carried out in buildings, streets or power plants under their management. Actions that could be supported by the DSS are, among others: planning of building heating or cooling management taking into consideration building occupancy levels, scheduling of supply periods for energy sources (biomass, fuel...) that need to be locally stored. Visualization: The way in which users select buildings to carry out the forecast/historical analysis and action plans operations has been put into perspective in order to provide the requirements for the interfaces designs (responding to the energy management needs of each pilot). Task 1.3 Task 1.3 Users Requirements Outcomes Main Targets to be addressed by OPTIMUS

For reasons of coherence and consistency with the DSS architecture and vocabulary, the last version of the SCEAF was completed on September 2014. Beyond the contractual obligations, a web based tool was developed that integrates the SCEAF, for its application to the pilot sites.
