Object – what is exactly the considered spatial dimension?
Neighbourhood: scale at level of a group of adjacent buildings;
District: integrates a set of connex buildings, public spaces, roads, vehicles, undergrounds, and networks (in a broad sense) + inhabitants, users (e.g. commuters), and administrators / managers;
City: a network of connected districts – with potential interfaces...
Potential factors to be considered
Spatio-temporal synergies inferred by a usage mix (including mutualisation of energy production and recovery);
Physical interaction – direct (e.g. umbrage common wall) or indirect (through any kind
Energetic expenses related to public spaces (e.g. urban lighting);
Energetic retro-actions district / environment;
Mobility.
Objectives – from an ICT point of view:
To produce ICT tools:
gathering & analysing information and supporting decision-making (e.g. through simulation) specificaly for the district / city scales
contributing to « decarbonate » the balance energy / greenhouse gases with respect to:
transforming the district.
New role in innovative distributed energy production with new associated business models
Renewable energy management
Distribution optimisation of local energy production
Storage of energy/electricity, to deal with erasing consumption peaks
Optimisation of energy balance (demand vs supply)
Management of coordination of the energetic system
Ensuring appropriate integration with smart energy grids - including securing the provision at any time of the energy
... in a systemic approach & according to various contexts (energy production mode, user profiling, safety,…).
Alain ZARLI – CSTB – September 2011
Quantification of deposit of decentralised
(decarbonated) energy production
Decentralised/distributed energy production & management – leading to local resources & energy generation (preferably only renewable,
Taking into account multi-constraints sets (regulations, urban planning…)
Identifying relevant management modes

eeD&C / Energy
Evaluate the energy-related interest in developping EPMS: which system for which district - measure / simulate / capitalise info. Define optimised management of EPMS algorithms Technical support to service deployment: identify the services, considering building constraint Evaluate the environmental impact of EPMS: kWh indicator, computing, observation. Evaluate the economic impact of EPMS: kWh-
.
eeD&C / ICT
Analysis of expectations re. ICT tools for network managers & users Modelling systems & users (behaviours, usage) / Business-View models atop the Urban digital mock-up allowing interoperability of tools dedicated to the design or exploitation of networks – Contribution to standardisation works Digital modelling of the Building-network interface (exchanged information) – link with intelligent metering ICT tools for design & optimal management of networked systems based
neuronal networksetc.) and or global sensitivity algorithms Definition & prototyping of interfaces / dashboards for visualising, designing or managing information (for users, designers, managers…)
eeD&C / Services
Definition of architectures (hardware & software) for the development of energetic services New algorithms for systemic management of EE districts & cities (predictive mode, agent, optimal control) Digital modelling to assess energetic value of new EE services developed in Micro-grids Definition of energetic dashboards to achieve benchmarking studies – integrating indicators suitable to usage / users Definition of a method to compute/visualise the energetic charge of a district – based on building/usage/system data
Conveying & storing digital “smart data / events”
“Smartly” processing data according to indentified patterns / global objectives Making objects “smart” over the network/grid (ICT empowerment)

Alain ZARLI – CSTB – September 2011
Methodological questions
“from-global-to-detail” OR “from-detail-to-global” approach? Starting from “conceptual” scenarios OR building-up from live
experimentations?
Defining trends from exemplary projects? …
Organisational questions
How to create a critical mass of research & innovation at EU level
in the areas of ICT-based technologies / services for energy efficiency in neighbourhoods & cities?
How to ensure the usage value of technical solutions, for instance
through large-scale pilots, user panels, education of citizens?
How to achieve systemic evaluation (KPI-based) of complex
systems?
