“…The total roof area in this category is 19,721.36 (23.33% of the total area of all roofs). The second most numerous group is roofs with annual solar potential in the range of 382,579 Wh/m 2 -508,700 Wh/m 2 -103 objects (group II)-the area of which is 18,808.41m 2 (22,25% of the surface of all roofs) Values of solar radiation potential at a similar level are also in the range 742,646 Wh/m 2 -944,887 Wh/m 2 (group V)-the area of which is 19,171.90 m 2 At least for the large group, they constitute roof patches, and the amount of solar energy falling on their surface is 944,888 Wh/m 2 -1,225,944 Wh/m 2 (group VI) and 41,196 Wh/m 2 -382,578 Wh/m 2 (group I) during the year. The solar potential values can be different in neighboring buildings because, when calculating solar intensity, parameters such as the height of buildings, aspect, slope of roofs, size of roofs, number of roofs' patchesare taken into account.…”

“…The issue of energy poverty is especially important in the context of ageing populations [28] despite the fact that long-term care expenses are constantly growing in Poland [35]. Urban renewal actions, also in the context of improving energy performance, will increase the value of properties [36][37][38][39], which would enable housing associations to achieve customer satisfaction by showing the costs together with benefits of these investments [40,41]. Therefore, there is a need to develop a flexible approach, matching the tool to the available data as well as the key drivers of the management process [31].…”

A Customized Decision Support System for Renewable Energy Application by Housing Association

One of the major problems in socio-environmental systems is the growing depletion of non-renewable resources and environmental degradation, resulting from inadequate environmental management and planning. Deepening environmental problems have forced countries to create management instruments that will help repair damage and support environmental protection efforts. The aim of this research is to develop a customized decision support system for the management of renewable energy based on the existing Geographic Information Systems (GIS). The proposed tool enables assessing the potential of solar energy production at the local scale, analyzing each rooftop. Due to the scale of the analyzed area and the details of the assessment, the tool is customized to the needs of housing associations. The system combines an existing GIS tool for calculating the solar radiation potential of rooftops (SOLIS) together with Tableau software that was used to aggregate and analyze data. In order to present the applicability of the developed tool, visualizations were prepared based on housing buildings managed by the “Biskupin” Housing Association in Wrocław (Poland) which is responsible for the management of 3415 residential premises. The created system based on spatial and environmental data will help to decide how to manage the available resources and the environment at the local scale while reducing the pressure on the environment. The tool allows for the aggregation, filtering and presentation of spatial data for the entire area of a housing association, as well as for a single building.

PurposeThis research aims to evaluate the factors that influence logistics outsourcing, including the impact of logistics outsourcing on measuring companies' logistics performance. This research provides interactions among the various factors (constructs) such as “financial”, “collaboration and process characteristics”, “external influencer”, and “logistics performance”.Design/methodology/approachTo investigate the interaction between the constructs, structural equation modelling is proposed to understand what the relevant criteria are while outsourcing logistics. Data were acquired from surveys conducted with 129 managers from Brazilian companies in the industry sector.FindingsThe factor “collaboration and process characteristics” is what most influences the “logistics performance” of companies, highlighting the importance of managing contractors; and the “financial” factor also contributes to the logistic outsourcing decision.Research limitations/implicationsSome limitations of this study need to be clarified. First, the model could test the moderate and mediate aspects by using variables inspired on RBV and TCE. Second, the sample is relatively small and restricted to the Brazilian industries' case, although the results may be useful for other countries in the world. Third, the responses represent viewpoints of the people who work in the companies. To address this issue, the authors asked respondents to fill out the questionnaire from the perspective of the organisation.Practical implicationsMost 3PL come from developed countries and find different requirements in Brazil. Then, this new knowledge may help 3L providers better understand the needs of the local or foreign companies that operate in the local market. The measurement model may also help to construct a new organisational process, as it sheds light on the main elements necessary for gathering logistics performance outcomes.Originality/valueTo the best of the authors' knowledge, the literature lacks studies on the interaction among these logistics outsourcing constructs, mainly in emerging markets where significant growth opportunities have led to logistics activities being outsourced. The literature that examines the impact of these constructs on logistics performance is also limited. Therefore, this research contributes to providing a model that measures these impacts according to the company's point of view.
