It is a cyber-physical technological ecosystem specifically designed to address the inefficiency of Europe\u2019s building stock \u2014 70% of which is currently outdated and inefficient, directly accounting for nearly 40% of global CO\u2082 emissions. <br\/><br\/>The research is focused on real-time optimisation of sustainability and energy management indicators, aligned with the rigorous European Level(s) standards and nZEB (Nearly Zero-Energy Buildings) efficiency frameworks. Through the systematic integration of OpenBIM models, predictive thermodynamic simulations, and Artificial Intelligence algorithms, POWERTWIN enables the active modelling and control of the entire lifecycle of built assets.<br\/>The overall scope of this R&amp;D&amp;I initiative is structured around five key pillars: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>INTEGRATED THREE-DIMENSIONAL DIGITALISATION (BIM \/ GIS)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>HIGH-PERFORMANCE PREDICTIVE ENERGY SIMULATION (MATLAB)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>REAL-TIME MULTIVARIABLE IoT DATA INFRASTRUCTURE<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>HIGH-CAPACITY DATA SCIENCE (AZURE DATALAKEHOUSE)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>AUTOMATED DEVIATION AND ISSUE ANALYSIS (openBIM BCF)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>INTEGRATED THREE-DIMENSIONAL DIGITALISATION (BIM \/ GIS)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>HIGH-PERFORMANCE PREDICTIVE ENERGY SIMULATION (MATLAB)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>REAL-TIME MULTIVARIABLE IoT DATA INFRASTRUCTURE<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>HIGH-CAPACITY DATA SCIENCE (AZURE DATALAKEHOUSE)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>AUTOMATED DEVIATION AND ISSUE ANALYSIS (openBIM BCF)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-background has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-9c325150 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"border-top-left-radius:12px;border-top-right-radius:12px;border-bottom-left-radius:12px;border-bottom-right-radius:12px;background-color:#fffbfb12;padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50)\">\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Developed Technologies<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-context=\"{ &quot;autoclose&quot;: false, &quot;accordionItems&quot;: [] }\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/accordion\" role=\"group\" class=\"wp-block-accordion is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-is-layout-flow\">\n<div data-wp-class--is-open=\"state.isOpen\" data-wp-context=\"{ &quot;id&quot;: &quot;accordion-item-1&quot;, &quot;openByDefault&quot;: false }\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.initAccordionItems\" data-wp-on-window--hashchange=\"callbacks.hashChange\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-item is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-item-is-layout-flow\" style=\"border-top-left-radius:1px;border-top-right-radius:1px;border-bottom-left-radius:1px;border-bottom-right-radius:1px;border-top-style:none;border-top-width:0px;border-right-style:none;border-right-width:0px;border-bottom-color:#ffffff54;border-bottom-style:dotted;border-bottom-width:1px;border-left-style:none;border-left-width:0px\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading has-icon has-icon-right has-md-font-size\"><button aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion-item-1-panel\" data-wp-bind--aria-expanded=\"state.isOpen\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.toggle\" id=\"accordion-item-1\" type=\"button\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle\">Structured Digitalisation and OpenBIM+<\/button><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div aria-labelledby=\"accordion-item-1\" data-wp-bind--hidden=\"state.isHidden\" data-wp-on--beforematch=\"actions.handleBeforeMatch\" id=\"accordion-item-1-panel\" role=\"region\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-panel is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-panel-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Development of BIM and GIS digital models that strictly comply with the international ISO 19650 series standards and openBIM formats (IFC).
