Decision Support Tool for Retrofitting a District, Towards the District as a Service

1. Decision Support Tool for Retrofitting a District, • Towards the District as a Service

2. URB-Grade Concept • What will we develop? • Decision Support Platform, District as a Service approach (DaaS) • Who will take advantage of this Platform? • City authorities and utilities as well as 3rd parties • What will this Platform do? • Information to improve the performance of a district in terms of • Energy efficiency • Cost effectiveness • Citizen Comfort

3. URB-Grade Concept • How does the platform work? • Collecting data from (a) Distributed sensors, (b) Open data sources and (c) Survey based data • Processing data using CEP to generate relevant information for the DaaS platform • Using information to provide advice to improve district performance

4. URB-Grade Architecture

5. URB-Grade Components DaaS Profiling Module - the module allows the end user to input particular characteristics of a district into a common data base. Characteristics include the consumer, type of consumer and installations – as a district profile based on a District Onthology. This also includes the measurable KPIs to monitor the district’s energy efficiency.

6. URB-Grade Components DaaS Quantification Module – the module enables the data acquisition from statistical, survey and real-time data; the processing of the data using CEP and structuring & storage of the data in a common format based on the District Onthology.

7. URB-Grade Components DaaS Analysis Module and Decision Support Dashboard – the module allows the end user to analyse data from the quantification module and to visualise KPIs, as well as access the Prediction Module.

8. URB-Grade Components Prediction Module – the module jointly with the Decision Support Dashboard enables the end user to define and forecast upgrade scenarios for the district and evaluate different scenarios to identify the most cost effective and beneficial solutions towards citizens.
