Abstract
In this paper we present a energy audit campaign conducted on 49 school building complexes located in the Lombardy region of Italy to collect data concerning their actual energy consumption for space heating, occupant behaviour and the technical characteristics of the buildings. On the basis of these data, different energy retrofit scenarios were studied with different performance and cost-effectiveness targets. The results show that it is not always convenient to improve excessively energy performance for heating.
