Abstract
La Universidad Técnica Federico Santa María es una de las principales casas de estudiosen Chile. Es una entidad formadora de profesionales en distintas áreas del conocimiento,con enfoque principal en ciencia y tecnología. Su casa central está ubicada en la ciudadde Valparaíso, con campus en las ciudades de Santiago y Guayaquil (Ecuador), además desedes en otras regiones de Chile.La organización demostró hace más de 5 años su intención de alcanzar el reconocimientode ‘’Campus Sustentable” haciéndose partícipe del Acuerdo de Producción Limpia (APL),el cual fue firmado por varias universidades chilenas con el objetivo de mantener vigente laDeclaración de Talloires, firmada en Francia dos décadas atrás, bajo la premisa de que lasinstituciones de enseñanza superior deben llevar el liderazgo de la sustentabilidad al restodel mundo.Dentro del APL, un punto fundamental es la Eficiencia Energética, y para gestionarlaes primordial contar con un diagnóstico apropiado.El propósito de este estudio fue realizar el diagnóstico energético de la universidad en loscampus Santiago Vitacura y San Joaquín. Estos campus se analizan en conjunto, puestoque poseen características similares desde el punto de vista geográfico, climático y tipos deenergía utilizadas, además de su cercanía física, lo cual facilita el análisis, para servir debase en futuras implementaciones y mejoras en el ámbito de la gestión energética.Se definió la línea base de energía para cada campus, logrando identificar a la electricidadcomo el tipo de fuente de mayor consumo en ambos casos; coincidentemente en los doscampus el área de mayor gasto energético es la climatización. De acuerdo a sus consumosenergéticos, se determinan las respectivas huellas de carbono, las cuales arrojaron que laelectricidad también lidera en las emisiones de CO2 equivalente, lo cual es concordantecon el resultado anterior en cuanto a su carácter como fuente principal de consumo en lamatriz energética de la universidad. A partir del diagnóstico se presentan varias propuestascon mira hacia la eficiencia energética, planteándose dos aristas principales respecto al tipode inversión. Por un lado destaca la inversión en capacitación de funcionarios y docentes deplanta, siendo un proyecto viable de bajo costo, alto impacto y de implementación en corto plazo. La otra arista se asocia a la posibilidad de inversión en ERNC, la cual corresponde ala implementación de sistemas solares.Finalmente es importante señalar, que la universidad debe tener un encargado de energía,quien deberá liderar los planes a desarrollar a futuro, para la correcta implementación ycontrol del trabajo que se realizará en la casa de estudio, indistintamente del tipo de políticaenergética que plantee la institución.En conclusión, este estudio define las bases para que la universidad decida qué accionestomar. Hay espacio para implementación de mejoras en ámbito energético, pero estápendiente por parte de la universidad una política energética, considerando que al seguir lasdirectrices trazadas en la información de esta investigación, la universidad podrá dar inicioal proyecto para cumplir con el Acuerdo de Producción Limpia y postular a la obtención deotros reconocimientos dados por el Gobierno de Chile.
Federico Santa María Technical University is one of the main colleges in Chile. It’san entity that trains professionals in dierent areas of knowledge, with a focus on scienceand technology. Its central faculty is located in the city of Valparaíso, with campuses in thecities of Santiago and Guayaquil (Ecuador), as well as oces in other regions of Chile.The organization declared, more than 5 years ago, its intention to achieve the recognitionof a “Sustainable Campus” by becoming part of the Clean Production Agreement(APL), which was signed by several Chilean universities with the objective of maintainingthe Talloires Declaration, signed in France two decades ago, under the premise thatcolleges must take the leadership of sustainability to the rest of the world.A fundamental point within the APL is Energy Eciency, and to manage it is essentialto have an appropriate diagnosis.The purpose of this study was to perform the university’s energy diagnosis in theSantiago Vitacura and San Joaquin campuses. These faculties are analyzed together, sincethey possess similar characteristics from the geographic, climatic point of view, and typesof energy used, in addition to their physical proximity, which facilitates the analysis, toserve as a base in future implementations and improvements in the energy managementfield.The baseline of energy was defined for each campus, thus being able to identifyelectricity as the type of source of greater consumption in both cases; coincidentally inthe two campuses the area of greatest energy expenditure is air conditioning. According totheir energy consumption, the respective carbon footprints are determined, which showedthat electricity also leads in CO2 equivalent emissions, which is in line with the previousresult in terms of its nature as the main source of consumption in the energy matrix of theuniversity.Based on the diagnosis, several proposals are presented with a view in energy eciency,with two main points regarding the type of investment. On one hand, it emphasizes theinvestment in the training of ocials and teachers, being a feasible low cost project, withhigh impact and short term implementation. The other edge is associated with the possibilityof investment in ERNC, which corresponds to the implementation of solar systems.Finally, it’s important to note that the university must have an energy manager, whomust lead the plans to develop in the future, for the correct implementation and control ofthe work that will be carried out in the study house, regardless of the type of energy policyproposed by the institution.In conclusion, this study defines the basis for the university to decide what actionsto take. There is room for the implementation of improvements in the energy field, but anenergy policy is still pending, taking account that by following the guidelines outlined inthe information of this research, the university can start the project to comply with theClean Production Agreement and postulate to obtain other acknowledgments given by theGovernment of Chile.
