Realisation of 3Smart Project at Ephzhb Business Building Site in Tomislavgrad

Abstract

Efficient use of energy is important in achieving sustainable development. In 2007, European Union set now well-known targets (20-20-20) for 2020 regarding greenhouse gas emissions, energy consumption share obtained from renewable energy sources and more efficient use of energy. These goals were groundbreaking at the time. They set a clear sense of direction, which drove investment in infrastructure, and research and innovation. It was a concept that has now been followed by countries all over the world. In 2019, European Union set even more challenging goals for 2030. An important role in achieving energy efficiency goal have building energy management systems, because consumption of commercial and residential buildings has more than 30% of final energy consumption amount. That is why efficient and intelligent energy management in the buildings can have considerable benefits. 3Smart project is an international project, which links renewable energy sources and energy efficiency with biggest achievement in applications, which manage energy flows in a building in interaction with electrical distribution network. The expected impact is clean and efficient way of energy usage with lower costs.
