ENERGE

Energy efficient pathway for the city transformation: enabling a positive future

With the aging of the existing post-primary school building stock there is a need for low-cost solutions that enable long-term resource efficiency in schools & reduced greenhouse gas emission (GHG). ENERGE (funded under the INTERREG Programme) addresses this need using targeted physical interventions that combine a web based platform & building sensors (e.g. electrical, thermal etc) with behavioural studies & new educational approaches that enable schools engage in energy and GHG mitigation. This holistic, adaptable & multidisciplinary approach will combine sociological, pedagogic and communications expertise with low cost technology, ICT interventions & systems engineering. ENERGE will be demonstrated in schools in France, Germany, Luxembourg, Ireland, the Netherlands and the UK.
