EeB Workshop
Slide Deck for Sessions 3
Slide Deck for Call 1 Projects
EeB Workshop
14-15 March2012
Objectives
S&T goals of the project
 Development of ultra low power units to control
HVAC system
 Development of the Hybrid Power Harvesting Unit
(photovoltaic, thermoelectric, vibration energy) to
power sensors
 Demonstration of the TIBUCON system through one year
on two pilot test
EeB Workshop
14-15 March2012
Objectives
Impact expected
 Clear Business Model through the ESCO (Energy
Services Companies) Giroa-Dalkia is planning to
adopt TIBUCON solution as a tool for rapid and low
cost energy audits.
 Energy Efficiency Improvement thanks to a better
knowledge of the of the building conditions the
possibility of using the solution in HVAC system
retrofitting, assures an enormous potential
consumer market and the consequent energy use
and CO2 emission abatement
 CO2 Emission Reduction and Battery use reduction
EeB Workshop
14-15 March2012
Objectives
Link with the multi-annual roadmap
 Reducing the energy use in buildings and its
negative impacts on environment.
 Reduction of carbondioxide emissions.
 Increasing of the share of renewable energy sources
in construction industry.

Innovation issues
Standardisation
Expected
No standardisation
EeB Workshop
14-15 March2012
Achieved so far
No standardisation
We have done a big effort in using
standards in all the layers of the system
(communication, data models, etc) in order
to achieve interoperability and as the base
for “Plug&Play” mechanisms. The mayor
impediment is that the standards selected
had to be suitable for very resource
constrained systems.
PPP Added Value
How does the PPP add value to your project?
Expected
Strong consortium based on E2B
Assotiation members.
Critical mass and new market creation for
Energy Efficiency in Buildings.
EeB Workshop
14-15 March2012
Achieved so far
ICT + EeB = ICT + ENERGY +
BUILDINGS… so bring together experts
from all these different worlds

PPP Added Value
How can you procide and added value to the PPP?
Expected
New products /servicess for global goals of
E2B PPP
Achieved so far
1st version of sensors have been created,
software in the development process
PPP research model popularization
Popularization E2B PPP at the conferences:
Innovation Convention 2011, ECTP 2011,
ICT for Sustainable Homes.
