Project description
Activating buildings and businesses
The EU-funded AmBIENCe project aims to extend the concept of energy performance contracting to active buildings and make it available and attractive to a wider range of buildings. AmBIENCe will provide new concepts and business models for performance guarantees of active buildings, combining savings from energy efficiency measures with additional savings and earnings from the active control of assets, leveraging, for instance, price-based incentive contracts. During the course of the project, business area workshops will be organised bringing together various stakeholders to assess best practices and learnings. Based on these discussions, an integrated modular concept will be proposed, and a proof-of-concept platform will be developed, to support the creation of active building performance contracts.
Objective
The AmBIENCe project aims at extending the concept of Energy Performance Contracting to Active Buildings and making it available and attractive to a wider range of buildings. AmBIENCe will provide new concepts and business models for performance guarantees of Active Buildings, combining savings from energy efficiency measures with additional savings and earnings resulting from the active control of assets leveraging for instance price based incentive contracts (Implicit Demand Response). The willingness to invest in additional sensorisation, ICT an IoT will be increased by offering adjacent other-than-energy services, e.g. related to comfort, security or maintenance.
Within the course of AmBIENCe, we will leverage the experience of the project’s business and research partners, and extend this through regional workshops where we will bring together various stakeholders to make an assessment of best practices and learnings. Based on this, an integrated modular concept will be proposed, and a proof-of-concept platform will be developed, to support the creation of Active Building Performance Contracts.
