Abstract

Retrofitting the heritage buildings (listed or not) is a complex task due to legal, financial and technical barriers. The decision makers often lack a holistic view about the condition of the existing building stock in their jurisdiction, possible renovation options and the impact of the renovation actions on the overall sustainability performance of the building stock. Within the ATLAS research project, the ATLAS-FeliCity online tool was developed. The tool provides a simplified digital twin version of the built environment and allows the user to conduct an energy performance analysis at various spatial scales (single, or portfolio of buildings). The developed tool was tested in different demo sites in the Alpine Space area characterized by similar building types and specially focused on the historic building stock. The tool is designed to be used as basis for the decision-making at municipality level. Municipalities will be supported in developing optimized renovation strategies in terms of reducing the ecological footprint and carbon emissions as well as increasing building´s energy efficiency. This paper presents a summary of the main features of the ATLAS-FeliCity tool and the results achieved during two-demo site testing: Madruzzo/Calavino (Italy) and Locarno (Switzerland).
