Abstract

The invention relates to a system and method for monitoring and management for energy efficiency in buildings, comprising data acquisition devices, a communication network, a server that stores and processes the information and a method for optimising energy consumption forecasts and economically evaluating improvement alternatives. The monitoring and management method comprises measuring, transmitting, receiving and transferring data, and processing, storing and interfacing with the user, wherein the interface with the user comprises three main modules: the alarms module; the monitoring module; and the investment options module. In particular, the investment options module is for generating investment recommendations based on alternatives for improvement in energy efficiency and/or for services with economic evaluations about the impact and the profitability of the implementation of any of the proposed improvement alternatives.
