Working consequently on energy issues and having energy data at municipal level is what Weiz has set up to do. The city of Weiz has decided to work with real data based on the size of the city of having about 11.300 inhabitants and about 450 energy supplied buildings. Having a good energy data basis is a result of (1) a survey of private households in the year 2013-2014, (2) the adjustment of this field research with existing data in the municipality and (3) the adjustment with statistics. The main challenge regarding energy management are (1) keeping the level of data quality (actualizing the data), (2) harmonizing them with existing data of the municipality (different tools and data basis) and (3) identifying/developing the “right” tool that could include future issues.

The ELISE Action is a package of legal/policy, organisational, semantic and technical interoperability solutions to facilitate efficient and effective electronic cross-border or cross-sector interaction between European public administrations and between them and citizens and businesses. The collaboration between CitiEnGov project partners and ELISE Action will address issues on energy data and undertake activities related to collection of energy data. In this context, the Municipality of Ferrara ( who is associated partner in CitiEnGov) together with the project lead partner SIPRO and supported by Dedagroup will collect spatial and energy-related data that is of interest for the ELISE energy pilot, in particular for the Use Case 2 (Implementation of different buildings’ Energy Performance Labelling schemes), aiming at developing different geo-processing services to automatically calculate the “energy labels” of buildings based on spatial information and basic attributes such as volumes and surfaces.

The implementation of the CitiEnGov project is complementary to the activities that the City of Bydgoszcz is performing in the mySMARTLife project. mySMARTLife is a project funded under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme. Activities will take place in the three lighthouse/advanced cities, where they will implement integrated, smart solutions in 3 areas: energy in buildings, transportation and CT.
 
One of the results of the CitiEnGov project, which aims at energy data harmonization, is an energy database. This database will provide data on energy consumption (electricity, central heating, gas and water) of municipal public buildings (e.g. schools, municipality offices). This might be used for Replication of Advanced Integrated Urban Planning methodology, for example:
 
* where an energy model (demand and supply) will be identified to create a 3D modelling,
 
* for simulations of energy demand for the next 10 – 20 years.

Introduction

Buildings are one of the most recognized sectors, when it comes to the topic of energy within Public Administrations, especially as they are connected to energy consumption. According to European Commission, buildings are responsible for 40% of energy consumption and 36% of CO2 emmissions in the EU (source, European Commission.

On that account, municipalities and other public entities responsile for energy, oftentimes give priority to refurbishment of public buildings because of the tangible nature of this kind of measure. There are also several regulative and financial initiatives aimed at reducing total EU energy consumption and lowering CO2 emmissions through improving energy efficiency of public buildings.

On the other hand, some CitiEnGov project partners reported that there is a lack of interventions by industries, businesses and private owners of buildings related to energy policies, so there is still room for improvement there.

Energy consumption and potential savings, are closely linked to energy data, which is increasingly becoming an important factor in energy planning. This could be taken as an opportunity by private sector and public entities, as they could take advantage of available data and capitalize on it. In the long term, energy data from buildings, public lighting and mobility could be integrated in one city data network, which would enable efficient energy management.
