Facilitating data-driven retrofits to alleviate energy poverty in Warsaw

31 July 2024
abstract:

The study includes a procedure and recommendations for collecting data on energy poverty at the building level, available in national and local government registers. The adopted analytical process allowed for developing various energy renovation scenarios for municipal buildings in Warsaw, considering a balance between social, environmental and economic goals in urban policy and identifying locations with the highest exposure to energy poverty. As a result of the analysis, we propose establishing an intracity working group to discuss issues related to the residential energy transition as well as criteria, weights and indicators of intervention; developing a city definition of energy retrofit, along with the introduction of measurable criteria for the energy efficiency of buildings; ensuring the completeness, interoperability, and further development of the city’s internal data monitoring system.
