欧州グリーンディールの枠組みで、ラトビアの3自治体の学校建物のエネルギー消費データを分析。技術的対策に加え、管理・行動変容対策が最大23%の節約をもたらすことが明らかに。複合戦略が最も効果的で、自治体への実践的示唆を提供。
English
This study analyzes energy savings in school buildings across three Latvian municipalities. It finds that while capital-intensive technical measures provide the bulk of thermal savings, behavioral and management measures can contribute up to 23% savings. Combined strategies yield the most balanced performance, offering evidence-based guidance for municipalities to prioritize investments and meet climate goals.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
日本の文脈では、学校施設の省エネは自治体の重要な課題。SSBJや有報での気候関連情報開示の観点からも、自治体がデータに基づいて優先対策を選択する枠組みを提供する点で示唆がある。ただし、ラトビアの事例であり、日本の建築基準や気候条件とは異なる点に注意。
In the global GX context
This paper contributes to the global discourse on building energy efficiency as a key lever for decarbonization, particularly relevant for public sector under the European Green Deal. It provides empirical evidence on the effectiveness of combining technical and behavioral measures, which can inform similar strategies in other regions, including Japan's push for ZEB (Net Zero Energy Buildings) and local government climate action plans.
👥 読者別の含意
🔬研究者:This paper offers a structured framework for analyzing energy savings from multiple interventions, useful for researchers studying building performance and policy effectiveness.
🏢実務担当者:Facilities managers and sustainability teams can use the finding that low-cost behavioral measures can yield significant savings while preparing for deeper retrofits.
🏛政策担当者:Municipal regulators should note the importance of data analysis and the potential of low-cost measures to achieve near-term emission reductions in public buildings.
📄 Abstract（原文）
Improving energy efficiency is a strategic priority within the framework of the European Green Deal and the Energy Efficiency Directive. In the public building stock, educational institutions account for a significant share of energy consumption. Improving the energy efficiency of school buildings simultaneously contributes to achieving climate goals, reduces operating costs for municipalities, and promotes the development of sustainable thinking in society by involving students as future decision-makers. Therefore, assessing the actual impact of different energy saving approaches is essential for evidence-based investment planning and effective implementation of climate policy. The study analyzed the energy savings of school buildings in three Latvian municipalities using a structured dataset on building characteristics, energy consumption and implemented energy saving measures during renovation, construction, and operation. The analysis revealed significant differences in the energy efficiency of buildings – the specific heat energy consumption of schools ranged from 42 to 181 kWh/m², indicating a significant untapped energy saving potential. The results show that thermal energy savings are mainly provided by capital-intensive technical measures, but management and user behavior measures can also have a significant effect, reaching savings of up to 23 %. The most stable results in terms of electricity consumption were achieved in buildings where technical solutions were combined with behavioral change and energy management approaches, with combined strategies providing the most balanced performance. The study highlights that targeted data analysis allows municipalities to identify priority buildings, select the most cost-effective measures, and accelerate emission reductions in the public sector. For municipalities with limited budgets, low-cost management and action measures can serve as an immediate first step, while preparing the ground for long-term renovation investments and facilitating the move towards climate neutrality.
