Service: Innovative functionalities and AI for energy saving in the public sector

Responsible organisation: VEB, HFB and VEA (Local Government)

Terra is the patrimony and energy database, originated in the bosom of Flanders Radical Digital. The database bundles energy information and characteristics about the buildings and infrastructure of the Flemish public sector. One of the tasks of the VEB is to ensure that the data is optimally and actively used for initiating and monitoring energy saving processes and renewable energy projects. Within this PIO project, VEB, Facilities and Services and VEA work together to achieve the following objectives through smart use of this data: detect energy-saving potential in public buildings faster thanks to AI applications and smart algorithms; develop comprehensive real estate strategies with a lasting impact thanks to asset analyzes and professionally managed energy management; initiating measures and facilitating and monitoring OEPC contracts for the public sector through measurement and verification models; increase the impact of specific functionalities thanks to synergies with other projects and initiatives. It will be examined where AI can be used to achieve these objectives and whether a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model can offer added value.
