EFICIÊNCIA ENERGÉTICA COM BASE NOS CRITÉRIOS PROCEL EDIFICA: ESTUDO DE CASO EM EDIFICAÇÕES DA REDE FEDERAL DE EDUCAÇÃO PROFISSIONAL E TECNOLÓGICA

Abstract

In the last decades, mainly after the energy crisis of 2001, the Federative Republic of Brazil adopted several sustainable development policies, in order to guarantee national economic growth, without compromising the natural resources of future generations. Among these policies adopted by Brazil, the National Program for Energy Efficiency in Buildings (Procel Edifica), established in 2003 by ELETROBRÁS / PROCEL, stands out. Its activities take place jointly with the Ministry of Mines and Energy, the Ministry of Cities, the universities, research centers and entities in the governmental, technological, economic and development areas, in addition to the civil construction sector. The program aims to promote the rational use of electricity in residential, commercial, service, public and residential buildings, where according to the 2019 Brazilian Statistical Yearbook of Electric Energy, published by the Energy Research Company (EPE), these buildings consume together 58.1% of all electricity produced in the country. After the publication of NORMATIVE INSTRUCTION N ° 2, on June 4, 2014 by the MINISTRY OF PLANNING, BUDGET AND MANAGEMENT, the use of Procel in public buildings of federal administration became mandatory. At this juncture, the need arises to implement Procel Edifica, combined with concepts of energy efficiency, in the federal network of professional and technological education. The present work aimed to classify the energy efficiency level of the executive project used by the “Brasil Profissionalizado” program. This program delivered (between 2007-2016) the public network of professional and technological education 342 works without the Procel Edifica Label. The project submitted to classification of the program obtained level C. In order for the project to comply with instructions (classify as level A), its construction must be leased, in order to consume less electricity, the lighting and air conditioning systems must be reformulated, or better, they must use more efficient equipment, in addition, must obey the prerequisites required by the Procel Edifica regulation.
