INSMART PROJECT
› Vision› Cities sustainable energy future are achievable by:
› bringing together cities, scientific and industrial organizations, › considering the integration of the components of the city’s energy system, › selecting cost-effective options from multiple data sources and integrated tools, › choosing the best social-accepted technologies and measures.
› Purpose› Design comprehensive data-driven methods for enhancing the city’s sustainable
planning, addressing the current and future city energy needs. › Implement an integrative planning tool to identify the optimum mix of short,
medium and long term measures for a sustainable energy future for the city. › Address the efficiency of energy flows across all city sectors considering spatial
patterns and economic, environmental and social criteria. › Engage city agents to pave the implementation of priority actions.

METHODS & TOOLS FOR DATA-DRIVEN
INTEGRATED ENERGY PLANNING
First: Analysis of existing sustainable policies and data availability for each city –identification of data gaps
and challenges and propose specific measures either in the form of necessary actions, (e.g. necessary preliminary studies, data acquisition, monitoring) as well as organisationalrestructuring of the city administration in order to achieve the sustainability targets.
Include different departments of the municipality to contribute
CENSE, NOVA-FCT, 2017
METHODS & TOOLS FOR DATA-DRIVEN
INTEGRATED ENERGY PLANNING› Door-to-door Buildings and Transport and Mobility Surveys
› Comprehensive GIS energy city database (present situation and future scenarios)
› Cities buildings stock characterized and modeled through a typology approach (using Energy Plus modeling tools)
› Extensive data from smart meters (relying on a sample of the 31000 EDP Distribution S.A., INOVGRID project)
› Transport based energy and carbon model
› Integrated modeling with TIMES (The Integrated Markal-Efom System) technoeconomicoptimization modeling tool.
– used to analyse the mix of measures required to meet sustainable energy targets
› Selected measures assessed with respect to non-technical criteria using a multicriteria decision making method (PROMEΤHEE (Preference Ranking Organization Method for the Enrichment of Evaluations) to address economic, environmental as well as social issues.

TRANSPORT AND RESIDENTIAL SECTORS
› Model building energy consumption1. Initial data collection
2. Identify building typologies
3. Detailed housing surveys
4. Detailed electricity use analysis
5. Energy demand modelling
identify a set of building typologies, based on construction period and built form, to represent the city’s housing stock (e.g. modern detached houses built after 1980 or historic terraced or row housing built before 1900).
-data and local knowledge already exists -> census records, spatial datasets, municipal records and national surveys;
Conduct a survey of city households to collect the data required for the construction of energy models for each city’s building typologies, based on a representative sample of each city’s housing stock according to its distribution. The surveys collected a wide range of information including details of the built structure (materials, insulation, internal floorplans, glazing), its occupants (age, income, employment status), heating/cooling systems presence and use, electrical appliances and lighting;
Nottingham around 600 surveys were performed, and in Évora around 400.

TRANSPORT AND RESIDENTIAL SECTORS
› Model building energy consumption4. Detailed electricity use analysis
5. Energy demand modelling
Gouveia, J.P., Seixas, J. (2016). Unraveling electricity consumption profiles in households through clusters: Combining smart meters and door-to-door surveys. Energy and Buildings. 116, 666–676.
When smart meters data are available, they are highly valuable in understanding electricity use within each building typology. • Due to its high temporal granularity, data from smart meters shows
how energy is consumed over the course of a day and how this varies over the course of a year.
• identify potential fuel poverty within certain types of housing and/or in particular areas of a city.
• Important to calibrate the energy demand modelling and to guide the selection of measures while respecting the city’s socio-economic features.
Create simulation models using building energy modelling software. EnergyPluswas used for the four INSMART cities but other similar software tools could also be used. Sensitivity analysis is performed to identify the variables that have a signifcant impact on energy demand

› Housing retrofit modelling
TRANSPORT AND RESIDENTIAL SECTORS
Map of simulated total energy demand for residential buildings in Nottingham
Identify potential retrofit options for each building typology.These include options for upgrades to heating/cooling systems, addition of insulation to walls, roofs or floors, draught-proofing measures or the addition of shading devices. The impact of each retrofit option is simulated using the building energy models
CENSE, NOVA-FCT, 2017
› The model developed as part of the INSMART project is an easy to use, but complex model, requiring minimal input data and computational time, but still providing sufficient sophistication to produce meaningful outputs for a variety of scenarios. The model includes processes for:
TRANSPORT AND RESIDENTIAL SECTORS
• Trip Generation from household numbers and floor space information for non-residential locations;• Modal Choice between highway and public transport. • Route Choice for both highway and public transport, allowing for the testing of new roads, traffic restrictions and new or
altered service patterns and routes.• Splitting vehicular demand into detailed Fleet Types, by vehicle and fuel type and Euro class rating, to allow for detailed
emissions calculation. Fuel Consumption calculations for the entire city, split by movements between city zones, plus the zone where the fuel is consumed.
• Data on demand flows, vehicle kilometers and key emissions such as CO2, Hydrocarbons and PM10s is produced.
Modelling process
Creation of a Base Year model Running the model forward to 2030 Forecast scenariosRepresenting the current energy usage situation in each city;Transport surveys were undertaken in each city (a minimum of 400 surveys was required) to assess the different trip-making purposes and patterns
demonstrated the effect of changes in population and the vehicle fleet over time as people switched to more efficient vehicles and represented a ‘Do Nothing’ scenario to which allothers could be compared
Run wide range of forecast scenarios providing changes in demand, energy usage and emissions compared to the ‘Do Nothing’ scenario

CONCLUSIONS (AND RECOMMENDATIONS)
› Challenges on the harmonization of data at different scales (e.g. point data on public lighting to areal information);
› All cities faced some difficulties on data privacy issues from the companies and on response time;
› The data collection allowed a important interaction and engagement with key city stakeholders, and the opportunity for dissemination of the project
› Engage the different city management departments in the early stages of project: data collection and measures co-creation and validation;
› Validate the cost-benefit allocation of work/time to model detail specific sectors/buildings;
› Endogenous renewable energy sources potential assessment is highly important;
