Project Description

PRELUDE will facilitate the transition to clean energy by combining innovative, smart, low-cost solutions into a proactive optimization service. The project is focused on assessing the right level of smartness necessary for any given household and then providing the optimal tools according to the needs of the user.

  • It is designed to be versatile and adapt to the engagement, monitoring and automation level of the building;
  • Passive solutions, such as natural ventilation and cooling, will be prioritized through a free running strategy. Predictive maintenance will be implemented to reduce costs, emphasizing RES (Renewable Energy Sources).
  • Big data and advanced analytic tools will be used to facilitate flexible building side demand and ease the integration into district heating and electricity grids. Proactive optimization will be achieved through data predictive control.
