Multidimensional Analysis To Connect Housing Retrofit with Energy Sharing awareness

In Italy, 7.4 mln residential buildings were built between 1945 and 1991 without any regulatory constraints on energy efficiency. The result is a degraded real estate park that causes high energy consumption and does not provide wellbeing. While many regulatory instruments have been introduced to facilitate the process of increasing efficiency, the results are still weak, concerning only a small part of the existing assets.
The objective of the project is to identify models to promote the energy retrofit of residential buildings, focusing on the stakeholders’ involvement and engagement. The used materials and components must not focus exclusively on indoor comfort but also on the impact of the outdoor environment. The financing mechanisms are based on the possibility of increasing RES generating energy communities at the building scale. The outcome will provide a methodological model for future research useful for all the stakeholders involved in housing, such as developers, decision makers, technicians, dwellers, and able to take together
multidimensional data, such as energy production, energy efficiency, well-being, through IoT and IoP.
