Description

The project is needed for the following reasons. First, to apply innovative energy technologies in the emblematic building of the Athens School of Fine Arts in the historical area of Delphis. Second, to implement a real project with a strong demonstrative character. Third, to achieve environmental protection and environmental consciousness. Fourth, to promote sustainable technologies and familiarize the School’s members with sustainable development practices and improve their quality of life. Fifth, to reduce social and economic inequalities. Sixth, to promote the application of innovative technological solutions and spread the benefits of innovation technologies to the wider public.

The project aims to implement innovative energy interventions at the Delphi Art Station that will reduce the building’s energy footprint and transform it into a modern smart building and an experiential energy center.

The project consists of the following sub-projects. First, the supply and installation of smart and innovative energy upgrade technologies in the ASFA infrastructure. Second, the use of intelligent experiential measuring equipment in ASFA Infrastructure. Third, the establishment of scientific support services for the sustained project implementation of ASFA and the dissemination of the project’s results.

The project plans to transform the Art Station of Delphi into a location of supplementary education for students and attract the area’s visitors to the Station’s premises.

The local community is expected to benefit in multiple ways. First, the model experiential workshop will educate regarding innovative green technologies and stimulate the School’s members and the Delphi area’s visitors. Second, the building’s visitors’ comfort conditions will be improved. Third, social and economic inequalities will be reduced. Fourth, energy consumption will be reduced to meet the building’s operational needs and its energy footprint and CO2 emissions will also be decreased.
