Abstract

The topic of energy saving in buildings is increasingly raising the interest of researchers for its practical outcomes in terms of economic advantages, and long-term environmental sustainability. Many sensory devices are currently available that allow precise monitoring of every physical quantity; in particular it is possible to obtain estimates of energy consumption which can be used to enact proper energy saving strategies. Such devices may be considered part of a complex sensor infrastructure permeating the whole site of interest, which may be characterized by the adopted protocols and architectural models. This work provides a comprehensive review of the current literature about sensory devices for energy consumption measurement, and global architectures for implementing energy saving in buildings.
