Projects promoted by the Province of Turin

1. Projects promoted by the Province of Turin Turin, 29 January 2013

2. Cross border Project Italy-France ENERCLOUD Project Sportelli Energia

3. Promoting the development and spreading of solar technologies (solar thermal energy and photovoltaic) • Supporting local industry promoting knowledge interchange between the involved stakeholders

4. Project results: • To register the local companies that work in the field of solar energy; • The updating is continuous. The database includes “denomination”, “owner”, “ address”, “contact numbers”, “sector of activity”. • Today 496 companies have been registered, among these 313 operanting in the solar themal sector and 323 in the photovoltaic (139 work in both sectors). • creazione di una rete transfrontaliera di imprese del settore;

5. Project results: • Training for artisans, workers in the sector and students of Technical Colleges;

6. Project results: • Monitoring processes that last one year on 80 solar thermal and photovoltaic plants (50 Italian side– 30 French side) to evaluate the energetic performances and the installation quality;

8. Potential good practices Plants that need to be optimized Guidelines for the design, installation and running of the solar thermal plants Guidelines for the design, installation and running of the photovoltaic plants

9. Project results: • There have been realized 8 test benches, 4 french side and 4 italian side, with innovative photovoltaic technologies; through their monitoring it will test their quality.

10. Project results: • Guide to the architectural integration> how to menage solar plants integration into existing buildings and into innovative projects.

11. ENERCLOUD ENERCLOUD is a monitoring project about the consumption of energy of the public buildings and lightings , based on bills. The initiative starts from the awareness that the lack of a structured system on the energy accounting in the public offices could lead to an excessive consumption of energy and economic expenses.. The system is based on the "Cloud Computing": the data storage and its formulation is calculated by remote systems, in order to avoid that users need complex infrastructures and a particular computer competence.

12. The solution proposed sees the registration of consumption deducible from bills for each municipal user on ENERCLOUD.

13. ENERCLOUD provides brief reports easy to understand thanks to the identification of parameters, of target values and of potencially irregular data.

15. “SPORTELLI ENERGIA” (Energy counters) Funds Regulations Economic and energy advantages dealing with the use of renewable energy resources Energy conservation and technologies for the energy efficiency

16. “SPORTELLI ENERGIA” (Energy counters) INFORMATIVE BROCHURE OF “L’ENERGIA DI CASA MIA” (My house Energy) The brochure of “L’energia di casa mia” includes technical , economic and legislative specifications about: fronts,coverings, fixtures, floors, heating systems, heat pumps, solar thermal and photovoltaic systems, biomass, energy certification.

17. SPORTELLI ENERGIA INFORMATIVE MEETINGS “L’ENERGIA IN CASA” 24 meetings arranged in collaboration with the same number of municipalities of the Province, realized through an interactive methodology to involve participants actively and to show to the citizens the advantages of the energy efficiency and the renewable energy resources.

23. The task of the Province of Turin: technical assistance to municipalities • The Province of Turin, as a coordination structure, provides a technical support service to all the municipalities participating in the Covenant of Mayors and consisting of: • Drafting of the energy balance over a period 2000 - 2011 • The reporting of greenhouse gas emissions • Definition of the Baseline Emission Inventory • Reconstruction of evolutionary scenarios of energy consumption by 2020 and quantifying the reduction targets • Identification of actions necessary to achieve those objectives • Drafting of the Sustainable Energy Action Plan (SEAP) • Management of formal relations with the Bruxelles office To offer a better service, the Province has developed its own guidelines for the drafting of the SEAP, validated by the Joint Research Centre, according to European guidelines but adapted to the needs and characteristics of its territory

24. Municipalities with approved SEAP

25. Cities on Power Project Project aims The project Cities on Power aims to develop an Action Plan for the development of renewable energy in urban area. This will be achieved through: 1. The realization of feasibility studies for the development of investments 2. The review and promotion of tools for participation public-private partnership to promote investment in the energy sector 3. The development of a software tool to support decisions

26. Computer tools Aim Creation of an urban model at the scale of building for use by: 1. public administrations involved in the project, for decision support relating to investments in renewable energies and reduction of energy demand. 2. to citizens, to inform, stimulate interest and increase awareness about energy supply from renewable sources and energy efficiency in urban areas (this application will be available on the web). • Expected Results • Mapping the demand for heat and electricity; • Mapping the potential of geothermal energy in urban areas; • Mapping the producibility of PV plants and STon the covering of buildings.
