Project Description

Energy Efficiency in Service Buildings

Recovery and Resilience Plan

This PRR support aims to rehabilitate and make buildings more energy efficient by increasing energy production from renewable sources and improving the energy and environmental performance of service buildings. The objectives are to reduce primary energy consumption by at least 30% and water consumption by 20%.

    • Actions in interior and exterior lighting systems, considering only the complete replacement of luminaries;
    • Implementation of systems or other solutions that contribute to the reduction of primary energy consumption in buildings, for example, HVAC, pumping, compressed air or swimming pools (examples: electronic speed variators, high performance motors, among others);
    • Installation of energy management solutions, including centralised management systems, through monitoring and control of the equipment or systems, to reduce energy consumption and decrease associated costs Incorporation of sensors (movement, presence, twilight, etc.), light flow regulators, among others;
  • Energy production based on renewable energy sources (RES) for self-consumption;
    • Installation of electrical energy production systems for self-consumption, through renewable sources with and without energy storage;
    • Installation and/or replacement of environmental heating and/or cooling and/or hot water systems, which use renewable energy, namely:
    • Heat pumps
    • Solar thermal systems, for the production of DHW
    • High efficiency biomass boilers and/or heat recovery systems with and without hot water accumulation systems
  • Water efficiency:
    • Replacement of water use devices by more efficient ones, including interventions to reduce water losses;
    • Installation of systems to make use of rainwater and/or grey water and/or water for reuse;
    • Implementation of solutions for intelligent monitoring and control of water consumption;
  • Immaterial Actions
    • Energy audits and the issuing of ex-ante and ex-post Energy Certificates, within the scope of the SCE;
    • Consultancy/audit actions in energy and/or water efficiency, essential to the implementation of the measures.
