Propuesta de implementación de una auditoría energética en el edificio de Produbanco Iñaquito, perteneciente a Produbanco, ubicado en la ciudad de Quito

Abstract

Abstract: Buildings, the third largest consumer of energy worldwide and therefore a great contributor of greenhouse gases, seek to be energy efficient, this means, consume less without affecting the comfort and operation of the building. Energy audits, depending on the degree of scope, analyze in detail the building, its operation and forms of energy consumption in order to determine excessive consumption and propose improvement strategies. The improvement strategies are of two types: Passive strategies those that have to do with the building envelope considering the geographical situation in order to reduce electricity consumption using the environment and active strategies those control methods with sensors and actuators operating in set to reduce consumption while maintaining comfort. The energy audits propose consumption reduction strategies in 3 short, medium and long-term plans so that they can be analyzed by the governing body in order to implement them, validating the cost benefit.
