TODO - As we are nowadays experiencing a transition period for the energy
demand, there is a clear movement of the European energy market towards
a new field of efficiency including reliable and smart systems that will
upgrade the improvement of Europe's economic and environmental health.
To this end smart systems introduce innovative applications with
multiple and interdisciplinary characteristics: safe integration of
additional renewables, distribution to the network, efficient delivery
systems and monitoring control through demand response in order to
achieve zero energy targets. The integration of smart technologies
requires a holistic approach that takes into account all aspects of
sustainability.
The implementation of highly efficient smart buildings is feasible
through the integration of smart metering, renewable systems acting as
generators/storage and energy management. The holistic system supports
and fulfils demand load management and distribution network of future
grids.. Moreover, the benefits of effective thermal and electrical
storage are underlined as a crucial factor of smart systems and smart
buildings. This paper highlights the principles of integrated design
procedure and links the process with smart building technologies. Energy
efficiency methodologies and innovative techniques applied at building
level are presented. To this context current EU policy framework, trends
and perspectives concerning integrated design as a supportive tool for
zero energy concept are also provided. (C) 2017 The Authors. Published
