The CMU Portugal Large Scale Collaborative Project “Building Hope” was highlighted in the Portuguese media, showcasing the research work developed under the project.
Launched in 2020, Building Hope aimed at developing and validating a tool for Holistic Optimization of Prosumed Energy (HOPE) of buildings.
Its primary goal was to leverage data collection and sensing technology, developing AI-driven methodologies to accelerate the transition to a cleaner energy future.
The project was developed by dstsolar in collaboration with Innovationpoint, Watt-IS, Instituto Superior Técnico, University of Coimbra, and Carnegie Mellon University, from 2020 to 2023. It was one of the 12 flagship projects selected under the 2018 competitive Call launched by COMPETE 2020, ANI – Agência Nacional de Innovation, and Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia, under the GO PORTUGAL initiative that was concluded in June 2023.
“With its holistic approach and advanced technology, Building Hope makes it possible to manage energy resources more intelligently and sustainably, demonstrating that technological innovation is crucial to face global environmental challenges”, explains Raúl Cunha, CEO of dstsolar.
