Renewable Energy Sources for smart sustainable health Centers, University Education and other public buildings

Description

Description (EN):

The three key targets of EU 2020 climate and energy package are: 20% cut in greenhouse gases emissions (compared to 1990), 20% of EU energy from Renewable Energy Sources (RES) and 20% improvement in Energy Efficiency (EE). Usage of RES and EE measures in public buildings are important part in achieving these targets. Region has diverse RES potential but the share of RES is far behind EU2020 goals. Even with new legislation, public’s inherited inertness and unawareness of benefits in improving RES usage and EE of existing public buildings still remains a major concern. Main goal of this project is therefore to demonstrate innovative RES and EE approach for public buildings in the cross-border region. FERIT and FTN gained substantial know-how in the field of RES by implementing small-scale RES on their public buildings through successful cooperation on bilateral projects aiming to establish common research and education frame in the cross-border region. This project will strengthen this cooperation and involve new partners - KCV, KBCO and SFSB. Within the RESCUE project we are aiming to promote the use of sustainable energy and energy efficiency in public buildings (specific objective 2.2), especially in public buildings with high energy demand. By introduction of RES based energy efficient smart Buildings Energy Management Systems (BEMS), RESCUE seeks to demonstrate sustainable, low-carbon solution for health centers and university education buildings, demonstrating applicability to other public buildings. Transferring know-how from university to healthcare a climate-smart solution will help reduce healthcare’s climate footprint and yield multiple benefits. This way health centers and university education public buildings are no longer exempt from playing an important role as an environmental leader in the region. All targeted groups will benefit from resulting knowledge transfer, workshops, publications, project conferences, printed and digital promotion material.

Achievements (EN):

Educational workshop held within project RESCUE: Within the project RESCUE – “Renewable Energy Sources for smart sustainable health Centers, University Education and other public buildings” an educational workshop was held on 29 November 2021 at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Computer Science and Information Technology Osijek. The aim of the workshop, which was attended by 73 participants, was to promote renewable energy sources for the sustainability of public buildings with a high share of renewable sources of energy. Project RESCUE – with electric bicycles from Osijek to Novi Sad: In order to promote project “Renewable Energy Sources for smart sustainable health Centers, University Education and other public buildings – RESCUE”, on 8 September 2021 a four-member team (Prof Damir Šljivac, Prof Denis Pelin, Dario Došen and Mario Primorac supported by Matej Žnidarec and Tihana Vajnand by car) from the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Computing and Information Technology (FERIT) set off from Osijek to Novi Sad with electric bicycles purchased for promotion of the project. Novi Sad was chosen as a destination because the lead partner of the project is the Faculty of Technical Sciences in Novi Sad and the RESCUE project was presented as part of the conference on electric vehicles “EV days” (Electric & Hybrid Technology), which was held on 9 and 10 September. It takes approximately five hours to travel from Osijek to Novi Sad by electric bicycle, which travels at an average speed of 25 kilometers per hour. The project team of Osijek’s FERIT set out on such a path with the aim of promoting the project of renewable energy sources. Project RESCUE finished construction of photovoltaic power plant system in Slavonski Brod: Within project RESCUE (Renewable Energy Sources for smart sustainable health Centers, University Education and other public buildings) the installation of the photovoltaic power plant and the battery storage system at the University of Slavonski Brod – Mechanical Engineering Faculty was successfully finished in January 2021. The photovoltaic power plant is now fully operational and has a nominal power of 64 kW and it is composed of 200 photo-voltaic (PV) panels with a nominal power of 320 W. Produced electrical energy is adjusted to the electrical network by three three-phase inverters and one hybrid inverter. The excess electrical energy produced by the PV power plant will be stored in the 8 kW battery storage system. In the next few months, the mounting of Buildings Energy Management Systems (BEMS) will be completed and it will enable the remote monitoring of the operation of the power plant.

Expected Results (EN): Energy consumption by public buidings in the programme area.

Expected Outputs (EN):

Expected output is implementation of innovative exemplary facilities for smart RES use and EE measures through establishment of at least 1.7 MW RES based BEMS on public buildings of FTN, KCV, FERIT, KBCO and SFSB consisting of: - PV systems ~ 712 kW. - Wind power plants ~ 8 kW. - Geothermal HVAC ~ 105 kW. - Solar thermal systems ~ 54 kW. - Bidirectional storage/supply and PV based charging station ~ 68 kW. - Waste utilization system for biodiesel generators ~ 750 kW. This will have direct impact on Programme output indicator: additional capacity of renewable energy production through implementation of RES based BEMS at all five partners’ public buildings. Programme result indicator will be impacted through the newly installed capacities that will provide invaluable energy resources to support partners’ public buildings energy consumption. As a consequence this will directly result in cost reduction of consumed electrical energy, since all partners’ buildings have significant energy expenses. Furthermore new capacities will decrease the cost of health care procedures, since procedure cost is tightly coupled with energy consumed per procedure. Project results will also be reflected through reduction in fossil fuels consumption and CO2 emissions as well as in improvement of EE in partner public buildings. Based on scientific research methods, relevant results will be obtained and these will be used in promotion of RES usage through series of educational events for general public, local and regional authorities and their public facilities management in major cities and counties/districts of the Programme area. The aim of these events will be to raise the awareness and importance of EE and the role that RES have, thus encouraging other parties to consider implementation of RES in order to achieve higher EE. All obtained scientific results, will be published in relevant scientific journals, thus achieving certain contribution as well as high visibility.
