| description | The increase in global energy consumption gives rise to several issues with regard to
limited energy resources, supply difficulties and environmental impacts. The main concern
is that this trend does not cease to curb its growth, while the common challenge is to reduce
energy consumption, thus mitigating its impacts on climate change. In particular, Building
Energy Efficiency requires particular attention, as the building sector is responsible for
approximately 35% of global energy consumption. Thus, European Union policies have
been interested in this field, promoting diverse actions in order to pursue and achieve
sustainability across the building sector, such as the allocation of funds for restructuring
and for energy refurbishment, as well as regulations and directives concerning energy
certification and reduction in the consumption of natural resources. This paper has two
main objectives. First, to analyze the role of the building sector at a global and European
level and its contribution to climate change, highlighting the main differences between
residential and non-residential buildings. Second, to present an ex-ante analysis and an expost preliminary results obtained from the energy requalification program applied to an
Italian public non-residential building: the Economy Campus of the University of Bari Aldo
Moro, with regard to economic (monetary cost reduction) and environmental (energy
benefits and greenhouse-gases reduction) savings |
