CONCERTO PLUS: What it does and latest developments

CONCERTO communities are expected to work towards a completely integrated energy policy by using a combination of measures such as:

The main focus of the CONCERTO communities:

Renewable Energy

Research Monitoring Training

PolygenerationEnergy efficiency

INTEGRATIVE APPROACH

CONCERTO and CONCERTO PLUS

- To strengthen team working within the CONCERTO initiative

- To encourage associated communities and new ones to participate, or to create new projects

- To add value to the results of the CONCERTO projects

- To spread the knowledge about the CONCERTO initiative and its benefits amongst Europe by creating an umbrella image for all projects

- To coordinate analysis and monitoring

- To provide Policy Recommendations based on the results of the CONCERTO projects

- To enable networking to share the results with other European platforms such as the EPBD

…TO MAXIMISE THE IMPACT OF THE CONCERTO INITIATIVE !

The main focus of CONCERTO PLUS:

Dissemination

Technical and Non-Technical Analysis

Networking

Knowledge Sharing

Policy Recommendations

The main focus of CONCERTO PLUS:

Across all CONCERTO projects

On all levels:

Community / Regional / National / European

CONCERTO PLUS: Latest Developments

- Socio Economic Evaluation: Socio Economic Matrix

- Technical Evaluation: The Technical Monitoring Database

- Site Visits

- Networking

- Dissemination: The CONCERTO DVD

CONCERTO PLUS latest developments: Socio Economic Evaluation

- SOCIO ECONOMIC MATRIX:- Tool for clustering similar

approaches as the basis for individual project assessment

- Socio-economic matrix tool consists of criteria; detailed

definition indicators related with

criteria, definitions and examples

tools for data acquisition; definition

The matrix is made available on-line for comparison and evaluation!

CONCERTO PLUS latest developments: Technical Evaluation

OUR TASKS

To collect results (monitoring and calculated) of all projects of all communities of all countries

To make this results comparable: across different countries / systems / building types

To summarize the results in a meaningful manner

To be able to assess what has worked were / what hasn’t worked / why has it not worked? what can we learn from this?

To use this data for Policy Recommendations: What legal / fiscal / funding mechanisms should be altered / implemented to increase sustainability in European communities?


HOW DO WE DO THIS?

- By creating ‘Baselines’ for all CONCERTO communities to allow for comparison and impact assessmentto… Assess RES, EE and polygeneration systems and measures throughout all CONCERTO communities

Assess actual energy performance of communitiesAssess which systems and measures are most

economically viable - By visiting the communities and their technical experts to find the real barriers / challenges in their projects- By collecting all calculated and monitored data in a ‘Technical Monitoring Database’ for short and long term evaluation-Communities will be encouraged to contribute their data to the database after the end of the CONCERTO project- We will then have a ‘real’ database of monitoring data across many European countries


WHY?

The CONCERTO initiative is a unique project which combines for the first time a series of communities across Europe

This will provide invaluable ‘real’ monitoring data throughout the building sector in Europe!

The results of each individual project can thus shape our future energy policy

We will have a real ‘return’ on the results: e.g.: improved legislation, improved funding schemes, research that is focusing on the real needs of Europe’s communities

TO MAKE A REAL IMPACT!


The CONCERTO Technical Monitoring Database

Technical Monitoring Database (Screenshots)

Regional site visits:

- Once a year for all CONCERTO communities in one country

- To establish a strong CONCERTO network between the communities on a national level (Network coordination group)

- Agree on national standards, guidelines and baselines for technical monitoring

- Establish common guidelines for policy recommendations

- Establish a CONCERTO dissemination structure on national level

CONCERTO PLUS latest developments: Site visits

Project Site visits:

- Once a year for each CONCERTO project (organised ideally in conjunction with project meetings)

- Development of project specific methodological standards of Socio- economic issues

- Open questions of project management issues

- Visit of demonstration projects

CONCERTO PLUS latest developments: Site visits

Visit other experts on their site visits

- Make site visits available in the Concerto Monthly e-mail

- Invite other experts

Knowledge Management

- Expert Talks on database are not really used; Expert-e-mail groups as alternative for cross-sharing of information

CONCERTO PLUS latest developments: Networking

Recent Developments in the CONCERTO communities

CONCERTO Communities: Demonstration Projects

- Overview of most recent developments in some other communities

- Highlights from Demonstration Projects

- Topics of common interest from other communities

CONCERTO Community: act2 / Hannover (DE)

CONCERTO Communities: act2 / Hanover

LISTER BAD

- 3200 m² Water Area

- Largest open-air swimming pool in Hanover

- Thermal Solar Collectors on the flat roof of the changing rooms

- 1890 m² of polypropylene solar absorbers

- Robust system adapted for low temperature heating required for a swimming pool

- The swimming pool has already been opened in May 2007

CONCERTO Communities: act2 / Hanover

60s APARTMENT BUILDINGS

- Replacement of single apartment gas heating systems through district heating

- Thermal improvement of the buildings’ envelope (walls, ceilings) and replacement of the windows by low-e glazing

- Cold bridges have been analysed and treated where necessary

- None of the apartments do have ventilation systems; the buildings will therefore continually be checked to assess the actual indoor air quality

CONCERTO Communities : ECO-City / Helsingborg - Helsingør (SE + DK)

CONCERTO Communities: ECO-City / Helsingborg - Helsingør

KVARTERET FRONTEN 3- 50 new ECO-dwellings over

14 storeys- Additional insulation (above

current Building Regulations)- Low-e windows- Heat recovery ventilation- District heating- Energy monitoring devices- Pre-fabrication of the façade - Expected to be finished in

January 2008


TÜRKIET (PORTALEN)- 107 new ECO-dwellings in a 6

to 7 storey building - Pre-fabrication- Additional insulation- Energy monitoring- Low-e windows- Heat recovery ventilation- District heating - 80m2 of evacuated tube

CONCERTO Communities: Knowledge Management

- Please inform us about the current status of your demonstration projects!

- Especially about barriers / lessons learnt / solutions

- This will help other communities (current ones as well as CONCERTO II communities) with similar tasks

- Encourage the cross-sharing of knowledge and experience!

- This ‘cross-sharing’ of information can happen through:

The monthly e-mails

E-mail groups on specific topics (i.e. Bio-Gas Plants)

Invitations to other CONCERTO experts to visit your sites

‘Regional’ site visits i.e. meeting with other experts

The CONCERTO Vision!
