A study on technologies application in the hospital indoor environment is done regarding each system separately. Building management systems (BMS) are also discussed. Currently used, best practice solutions, which contribute to improve total energy efficiency of the healthcare facility, are presented. Some guidelines of how energy efficiency can be achieved are given. Second part of the deliverable brings to the reader the State of the Art knowledge about selected optimization methodologies at room and building levels.

In Appendix 1 devices responsible for energy conversion, distribution, delivery and storage are described and some basic parameters are given as well as their characterization of usage. Parameters that can be optimized are presented within this part of the document.

In Appendix 2 basic formulas are given to present how parameters mentioned in the text can be calculated.

The report is organized as follows:

• SoTA and best practice solutions of MEP technologies considerations (chapter 1);
• Chosen methodologies for MEP system optimization (chapter 2);
• Parameters and description of selected technologies (appendix 1);
• Formulas (appendix 2)

The first part classifies the building systems and gives an overview on areas where savings can be done and how it can be achieved.

The second part provides the description of chosen optimization methodologies with underlining the optimization criterion.

Appendix 1 brings the parameters describing each family of technologies with detailed description of selected solutions. Appendix 2 brings formulas being a substantive supplement to the document.
