SMARTeeSTORY's project report D1.5 presents the SRI-based assessment tool for historic buildings of the SMARTeeSTORY project.

The Smart Readiness Indicator (SRI) methodology allows for qualitative and quantitative assessment of the state of the building's capacities and preparation to incorporate smart services around three pillars: energy performance over time, ability to adapt to the needs of the occupants and contribution to the stability of energy grids through active demand management. Implementation of the SRI aims to increase awareness about the benefits of smart building technologies, e.g.: automated systems and electronic monitoring for different building technical systems (heating, hot water, ventilation, lighting, etc.). In fact, the adoption of the SRI framework will foster innovation in the construction industry by encouraging the use of advanced smart technologies in buildings.

The report summarizes the creation of a webApp to simplify the calculation of the SRI, following the detailed calculation included in Method B – Expert SRI assessment according to the European Commission. The document describes the current version of the webApp, its structure, main sections, and current functionalities. The webApp allows users to upload specific building information to assess the SRI of any specific building. The assessment is carried out on a user-friendly environment and supported by a virtual assistant. This early version of the webApp will be the basis for the second stage, which will include new functionalities as an added value to the current SRI assessment process.
