Abstract

The aim of this study is to map an overview of the education, research and innovation on energy efficiency focused on the rehabilitation of the built environment. The research is organized as follows:

  • Introduction and contextualization on energy efficiency.

  • The main educational resources are depicted regarding (i) the educational levels on energy efficiency, (ii) the professional attributions, (iii) the role of energy manager and (iv) various examples of existing studies.

  • The main research and innovation challenges are presented considering (i) the role of Energy Service Providers (ESPs); (ii) Energy Conservation Measures (ECMs); climate adaption and adaptive comfort; (iv) heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems: adaptive setpoints; (v) mixed mode potential; (vi) Net Zero Energy buildings (NZEB); (vii) climate change and (viii) fuel poverty.

  • Conclusions of the educational, research and innovation challenges.

  • References including the citations in which the main text is supported.
