Abstract(s)
Com vista à redução do impacto ambiental e ao aumento da eficiência no consumo energético em edifícios públicos, tornam-se necessárias abordagens integradas de produção e consumo de energia. Neste contexto, a harmonização do conceito de eficiência energética em estruturas académicas com recurso à produção local de energia de origem renovável, armazenamento e partilha em comunidades de energia tem um papel fundamental para atingir esse objetivo.
O presente relatório analisa a viabilidade da implementação de sistemas fotovoltaicos nos edifícios do IPL - Instituto Politécnico de Leiria, incluindo a possibilidade de integração numa comunidade de autoconsumo coletivo, bem como a viabilidade de armazenamento de energia.
A conceção deste projeto envolveu a caracterização dos perfis de consumo anual, que serviram de base para efetuar simulações de produção com recurso ao software SAM e ao Helioscope. Efetuaram-se também várias análises de cenários com e sem armazenamento em baterias, bem como a partilha de fluxo de energia entre as comunidades de autoconsumo de Leiria e Peniche.
Após a comparação das diferentes simulações efetuadas, foi selecionada a solução mais adequada aos objetivos da instituição. Procedeu-se também a uma estimativa de custos, fundamental para apoio à decisão com base no retorno financeiro.
As conclusões demonstram que os sistemas fotovoltaicos permitem reduzir significativamente a dependência da rede, alcançar elevada rentabilidade, com períodos de payback inferiores a três anos na maioria dos casos e contribuir para a sustentabilidade ambiental da instituição.
O desenvolvimento do trabalho baseou-se em fontes técnico-científicas consultadas online e, sobretudo, na orientação e contributos do docente orientador.
With the aim of reducing environmental impact and improving energy efficiency in public buildings, it is necessary to adopt integrated approaches to energy production and consumption. In this context, aligning energy efficiency in academic facilities with local renewable energy generation, storage, and sharing within energy communities plays a key role in achieving this goal. This report assesses the feasibility of implementing photovoltaic systems in the buildings of the Polytechnic Institute of Leiria (IPL), including the potential integration into a collective self-consumption community, as well as the feasibility of energy storage. The project design included the characterization of annual consumption profiles, which served as the basis for production simulations using SAM and Helioscope software. Several scenarios were analysed, with and without battery storage, as well as energy flow sharing between the self-consumption communities of Leiria and Peniche. After comparing the different simulations, the most suitable solution for the institution’s objectives was selected, and a cost estimation was also carried out, providing fundamental support for decision-making based on financial return. The conclusions show that photovoltaic systems can significantly reduce dependence on the grid, achieve high profitability with payback periods below three years in most cases, and contribute to the institution’s environmental sustainability. The development of the work was based on technical-scientific sources consulted online and, above all, on the guidance and contributions of the supervising professor.
