Abstract
The construction sector, responsible for environmental impacts such as waste generation, water and energy consumption, has as its current challenge to bring energy efficiency into the construction site and post-built environment. Thus, in relation to energy consumption, INMETRO developed a labeling program aimed at classifying the energy efficiency of electrical equipment and also buildings. It turns out that public buildings are required to obtain the National Energy Conservation Label (ENCE). Given the above, it is asked how to measure the energy efficiency of public buildings, making them energy-appropriate, and thus meet the needs of the user, providing environmental comfort and economy. The objective of this work was to simulate obtaining the ENCE Geral label and present the level of energy efficiency of the Municipal Library of Campo Mourão-PR. The Prescriptive Method was used, established by the Technical Quality Regulation for the Energy Efficiency Level of Commercial, Service and Public Buildings (RTQ-C). Three building systems were analyzed: Wrapping, Lighting System and Air Conditioning System. As a result, the building under study presented a level C classification of efficiency, on a scale of A - E, being A very efficient, and E inefficient. It is concluded that the building does not provide comfort to users, besides high energy consumption. However, it is possible to adopt measures that can help optimize the level of energy efficiency on site.
Highlights
The concern of developed countries with environmental conservation resulted in international conferences, seeking economic alternatives. (DEBATES INTERDISCIPLINARES VII, 2016).Examples of these conferences are the Kyoto Protocol and the Stockholm Convention
To achieve the general objective, this work was developed based on the following specific objectives: To observe the prerequisites required by the Manual for the Application of RTQ-C; collect data on site and process architectural design information; calculate and determine the level of energy efficiency for the three building systems
The air conditioning equipment installed in the Municipal Library is certified by INMETRO, so the technical information provided by the institute itself and the manufacturers was used
Summary
The concern of developed countries with environmental conservation resulted in international conferences, seeking economic alternatives. (DEBATES INTERDISCIPLINARES VII, 2016).Examples of these conferences are the Kyoto Protocol and the Stockholm Convention. The Brazilian Labeling Program (PBE), together with the PBE Edifica, arose from discussions initiated by the National Institute of Metrology, Quality and Technology (INMETRO) The objective of this program is to raise consumer awareness through information about the operation of equipment and its energy consumption (CONFERÊNCIA DE ESTUDOS EM ENERGIA ELÉTRICA, 2019). To achieve the general objective, this work was developed based on the following specific objectives: To observe the prerequisites required by the Manual for the Application of RTQ-C; collect data on site and process architectural design information; calculate and determine the level of energy efficiency for the three building systems
