HIT2GAP: Highly Innovative building control Tools Tackling the energy performance gap.


EU / H2020 Grant Agreement No.: 680708
Topic: EeB-07-2015 New tools and methodologies to reduce the gap between predicted and actual energy performances at the level of buildings and blocks of buildings.

Starting date of project: 1st of September 2015 Duration: 48 month

 

PROJECT BRIEF:

The actual energy consumption of buildings in Europe often significantly exceeds the expected energy requirements. This gap in energy performance can arise from construction errors or from differences between the way a building was intended to be used and how it is actually used. 

An energy management platform could help to reduce this energy gap - and this will be easier thanks to a new and innovative energy reporting platform.

To create a new energy reporting platfor, the HIT2GAP project will deliver:

  1. A generic information platform with protocols for communication with devices and user interfaces
  2. Building energy modelling, to establish energy consumption benchmarks
  3. A variety of tailored modules to inform users, energy managers and engineers.
