Project Aim
The main objective of the project is to face the challenge of the integration of renewable energies and improve the energy efficiency of public buildings in which, due to their field of activity, quality and continuity of supply must be considered fundamental aspects (Hospitals, Research Centers, Military Facilities and Transportation Stations). These public buildings have a high energy consumption for electricity, heating and air conditioning. Therefore, it proposes its conversion to Zero Energy Balance Buildings (nZEB) through the integration of micro-networks of combined cold, heat and electricity generation with active neutral control and use of hybrid energy storage systems. To do this, the realization of pilot experiences in the research centres of Spain, in the CNH2, and of Portugal, in the LNEG.
