Накратко на български

Сградите с ниска консумация на енергия се анализират чрез нов инструмент за оценка на комфорта, здравето и качеството на средата за хората в тях. Това помага за подобряване на жизнените условия и намаляване на въглеродните емисии в градската среда.

Smartness, Health Assessment and Performance Evaluation

Climate change, the need to curb energy use and carbon emissions, and the imperative to provide healthy and safe living conditions to all, are among the vital challenges we have to address today. In addition, the recent coronavirus disease (COVID19) pandemic, due to the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, is threatening our safety at a global scale. Buildings can shelter us, elevate us, be places of community and refuge; yet, they may threaten our life, wall us off, isolate us, and harm our very habitat. Scientific evidence has also shown that most of our building stock has relevant shortcomings (e.g., poor heating, ventilation and lighting, dampness, pollutants) that can deteriorate the health of building inhabitants. With the forces of climate change, pandemics, population growth, and urbanization creating unprecedented challenges the decisions we make today to shape the buildings of our future will determine our collective welfare for generations to come. This is what the Smartness, Health Assessment and Performance Evaluation (SHAPE) project aims to address. In this era, we focus on energy transition, low carbon built environment and nearly Zero Energy Buildings (nZEBs). Enhancing experience of inhabitants - comfort, satisfaction, health, and well-being - is significant as well as achieving energy efficiency, smartness and high environmental quality in buildings. No comprehensive post-occupancy evaluation tool (POE) is yet available to systematically assess, in a robust and non-intrusive way, the performance of healthy and smart nZEBs from the perspective of inhabitants, and effectively combine assessment of inhabitant experience, energy efficiency, smartness, and environmental quality in building design, management and operation. SHAPE project aims to propose, deploy, and validate a new post-occupancy evaluation tool for healthy and smart nZEBs, tracking holistically and assessing rigorously inhabitant comfort, satisfaction, health, and well-being, alongside buildings’ energy efficiency, smartness and environmental quality. The objectives of the project are (O): O1) build a framework of key performance indicators to evaluate comfort, satisfaction, health, and well-being of inhabitants alongside energy efficiency, smartness and environmental quality of buildings; O2) define and test objective and subjective measurement methods to robustly collect building and inhabitant data in a non-intrusive way; and, O3) propose the integration of a new post-occupancy evaluation tool into building standards, rating systems, and into the practice of the construction industry.

Цел на проекта

I aim to address association of health, wellbeing, smartness and indoor environmental quality (IEQ) with nearly zero energy buildings (nZEBs) in Université catholique de Louvain (UCLouvain, Belgium) under the supervision of Professor Sergio Altomonte. We are living in a decade in which problems such as climate change, global warming, lack of resources, detrimental impact on human health and solutions such as sustainable development, resilient environments, mitigation of carbon emissions, excellence in energy efficiency have never been much more significant before. The Directive 2018/844/ EU amending the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) Directive 2010/31/EU) indicates the requirements for nZEBs. Post-occupancy evaluation (POE) and building performance evaluation (BPE) are significant processes to assess user satisfaction, identify problems in buildings and develop solutions. The main aim of SHAPE project is to propose, deploy, and validate a new BPE tool for healthy and smart nZEBs, tracking holistically and measuring rigorously user comfort, health and well-being, alongside buildings’ energy efficiency and smartness. As the first step of the research methodology, a framework of performance indicators for healthy and smart nZEBs will be created. Secondly, a BPE tool will be developed for assessing health, wellbeing, productivity, IEQ and smartness for new and renovated nZEBs in use. In the third step, the developed BPE tool will be validated in selected existing smart nZEBs. Furthermore, the BPE tool will be finalised in the fourth step and disseminated in the fifth step. In conclusion, the BPE tool will identify problematic areas in nZEBs and recommend improvements for a better building performance with a higher quality for occupants considering human factors. The lessons learned from implementation of the BPE tool can provide guidance for the design of new nZEBs.
