Propuesta de calificación y certificación energética del edificio torre internacional RAA, perteneciente a la Dra. Rosemary Álvarez Aguayo, ubicado en el cantón Ventanas, provincia de los Ríos

Abstract

Abstract: The energy efficiency of a building is determined by calculating or measuring the energy consumption necessary to satisfy the building's annual energy demand under normal operating and occupancy conditions. An alternative to achieve a more efficient and economical consumption is the use of renewable energy sources to carry out this process. The objective of this project is to improve the energy performance of the RAA international tower building, belonging to Dr. Rosemary Alvarez Aguayo, located in the Ventanas canton, Los Rios Province, by carrying out an initial energy audit of the building, which will allow us to propose different alternatives to achieve energy savings, reduce total demand and, above all, mitigate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.The simulation tools used in this study are CERMA and CE3X, according to the initial energy rating, four improvements proposals are proposed, which will help us to improve the energy of the building under study ando, above all, we will obtain the desired economic savings.
