Energy audits performed in Mediterranean University Buildings

A structured methodology to carry out the energy audits, in the identified pilot sites, was adopted in order to define the resource planning, establish an energy audit team (including technicians, engineers, and students), organize instruments and timeframe, collect and analyze utility data.
Energy audit reports were elaborated including the data collected and recommendations for potential solutions and opportunities for improving energy efficiency and renewable energy applications.
An online training course transferring knowledge on how to perform an efficient energy audit in university buildings was organized targeting over 50 students across the Mediterranean. The students analyzed case studies and proposed renovation solutions to meet nearly zero energy buildings requirements, of the university buildings analyzed.
