5. User Requirements definition methodology DATA COLLECTION PHASES  Municipality & pilot buildings description questionnaire  Questionnaire refining telephone calls  DSS expected fucntionalities questionnaire  Functionalities refining calls  DSS MockUp  Questionnaire to define requeriments for each OPTIMUS’s data gathering subsystem

6. Questionnaire Results: Sant – Cugat PILOT SITE DESCRIPTION Municipal buildings: 52 builidings (2 Pilots: Theater & Town hall) Used Energy sources: Gas, Electricity, Biomas Deployed energy management policies: Indoor comfort values set at regulation minimum requeriments Outdoor lighting set at regulation minimun requeriments Billing: Electricity: Contract, yearly; Billing, monthly; One bill per building Gas: Contract, yearly; Billing, monthly; One bill per building Biomass: Contract, monthly; Billing, monthly; One bill per building Monitoring: Partialy already centralized monitoring Indoor: Town hall : Indoor comfort. Theater: None Outdoor: Town hall : Temperature/Sun Rad.. Theater: Temperature Social and Forecasting: Not Used

7. DSS EXPECTED FUNCTIONALITIES Municipallity Level:  Dynamic information about market prices for energy sources  Forecast periods/days that will have outstanding energy demands due to extreme weather conditions Building Level:  Compare buildings’ energy consumption with the outdoor temperature to obtain kWh/Text & kWh/Tint ratios Questionnaire Results: Sant – Cugat

10. Questionnaire Results: Zaanstad PILOT SITE DESCRIPTION Municipal buildings: 150 builidings (1 Pilot: Municipallity building) Used Energy sources: Electricyti,Gas, Solar Panels Thermal storage used. Regulations allows to use of local consumption of RES Deployed energy management policies: Outdoor lighting based on time schedule and light level. Billing: Electricity: Contract, monthly; Billing, monthly; One bill per building Gas: Contract, monthly; Billing, monthly; One bill per building Tariff based on consumption ranges Monitoring: Basic indoor and outdoor monitoring features (Temp. + CO2) BMS and other monitoring platforms already installed Social and Forecasting: Not used

11. Questionnaire Results: Zaanstad DSS EXPECTED FUNCTIONALITIES Municipallity Level:  Forecast periods/days that will have outstanding energy demands due to extreme weather conditions  Centralized building monitoring Building Level:  Compare buildings’ consumption with the outdoor temperature to obtain kWh / Text y kWh/Tin ratios  Compare buildings’ consumption with the outdoor wind speed to obtain kWh / Text y kWh/Tin ratios  Link energy demand to building occupancy level  OPTIMUS’s integration with already installed management platforms

12. Questionnaire Results: Savona PILOT SITE DESCRIPTION Municipal buildings: 85 buildings (1 Pilot: Colombo Petrini High School) Used Energy sources: Electricity,Gas, Fuel, Solar Panels, Solar thermal Regulations allows to use of local consumption of RES Deployed energy management policies: Street/Area outdoor lighting management Billing: Electricity, Gas: Contract, Every # years; Billing, monthly; One bill per delivery point Fuel: Contract, Yearly; Billing, 6 months; One bill per building Different billing schemas: GAS: Changes on the basis of the basic’s fee trend of the authority for the Italian Electricity and Gas (AEEG) Electricity: Changes on the basis of the basic’s fee trend of the Dated Brent Fuel: The rate changes on the basis of the amount of fuel bought

13. Questionnaire Results: Savona PILOT SITE DESCRIPTION Monitoring:  Outdoor complete monitoring (Temp. WindSpeed, Sun Rad., Pollution)  Indoor not monitored  Heating and RES generation monitored  Cooling and lighting not monitored  BMS platform installed. Social and Forecasting: Not used

14. Questionnaire Results: Savona DSS EXPECTED FUNCTIONALITIES Municipallity Level:  Integration with already installed management platforms  Forecast periods/days that will have outstanding energy demands due to extreme weather conditions.  Forecast RES generation based on the weather forecast  Centralized building monitoring  Doubt -> Comparison between similar days (3 pilots’ comments) Is it useful?  On-line energy prices update Building Level:  Integration with already installed management platforms  Link energy demand to building occupancy level  Compare buildings’ consumption with the outdoor wind speed to obtain kWh/Text and kWh/Tin t ratios  Free cooling usage

15. Pending Work & Next Steps Next tasks : Integrate MockUP results. Questionnaire for OPTIMUS data gathering subsystems requeriments Complete deliverable D1.3 Scheduled releases : 21st May complete draft version for review. Due date for comments: 23rd May. 26th May complete version for review. Due date for comments: 28th May. 30th May D1.3 delivery.

16. Conclusions  Municipallities don’t manage power plants.  Municipalities don’t participate in energy markets but information for future participation should be provided  Local generation is restricted to solar photovoltaic and thermal sources: solar radiation (weather forecast) vs. generation capability should be provided.  The link between energy consumption and weather forecast (Text, Wind speed, ) should be provided.  The link between energy consumption and occupancy level should be provided.

17. Conclusions  Periods/days of high energy demand due to extreme weather conditions should be identified.  BMS-s are installed but not very detailed information is available. Additional meters will be required  Centralized monitoring and BMS integration desirable

18. Open Discussion DSS functionalities - High level trends (see S-C MockUp) ? - Detailed set-points ? DSS integration: - Open interface to third party platforms ? - Direct integration with other BMS ? - No integration ? DSS forecasting: - Outstanding hot or cold days? - RES generation in next ## hours? - Energy prices in next ## days?
