Keynote presentations
Opening Ceremony (Aula Magna UNICA, 05 June 2019, 14:30 - 16:30)

Dr Don McLean - Founder & MD of IES


Keynote: “Making communities sustainable - a manifesto for saving the planet”
With the new digital twin technology we can now apply sustainable analysis to communities of any
size or purpose, enabling people to look at energy use holistically at a much larger scale. To do this
successfully we need leaders who can lead their community and evolve these smart concepts into
truly intelligent solutions which will have a measurable and lasting impact upon climate change. If
each leader looks after their built environment footprint, in time, we can cover the Earth.

Audrey Nugent - Head of Advocacy World Green Building Council


Keynote: “Green Building Councils – Putting a sustainable built environment at the heart of
Europe's future”
Green building councils make up the largest sustainability organization worldwide. We are present in
over 70 countries and have over 49,000 members. Together, we work toward a more sustainable built
environment through a series of actions that include the shaping and implementation of sustainability
protocols, training to professionals, advocacy, the organizations of events and the networking of
organizations and professionals dedicated to sustainability. This talk will discuss the role of GBC in
Europe and beyond and share our thoughts and observations on the trends impacting the sector as
we move beyond buildings and toward sustainable places in the digital age that are more energy
efficient, that promote wellness, and that are more circular.

Dr Karim Selouane - Founder & CEO of Resallience


Keynote: “How to make Infrastructures and Cities Relient towards Climate Change”
In emerging economies, climate change threatens the development role of infrastructures. It is
affecting all types of large-scale projects such as energy, transport, water and more generally
buildings. Rising temperatures, increasing flood risks, and other climate hazards are already stressing
reliable and efficient operations of these networks leading to large economic and social impacts. As
such, the public and private sector, investors, and civil society must now address climate change risks
and uncertainty when planning, building and operating infrastructure projects. By adopting a
resiliency lens via a technical action framework which covers insurance, normalization and finance,
stakeholders can implement tools and methodologies that lead to improved design, site selection and
operations of infrastructures to increase the resilience of our cities and the infrastructures that support
them.
Andrea Raimondi - Business Developer Energy Efficiency for Legrand Group
Keynote: “Legrand Group: the strong engagement in Energy Efficiency”

stakeholders in this CSR strategy, which they implement all over the world. One of the 3 pillars of the
CSR strategy is the ENVIRONMENTS or how Legrand Group intends to limit the Group’s environmental
impact.

Ing. Raffaele Cosenza - Energy Manager Banco di Sardegna


Keynote: “Switch- Off project : energy efficiency for Banco di Sardegna buildings”
The Switch – Off project for improved energy efficiency for the Banco di Sardegna was conceived in
2014 to deal effectively with the need to reduce costs, save energy and optimize consumption.
The goal was to explore the numerous opportunities related to low implementation costs, which would
guarantee promising results both in terms of systems management and staff involvement.
Through the installation in over 150 sites of adequate software and equipment for measuring and
controlling the main electrical loads in the most energy-intensive branches of the Banco di Sardegna,
it was possible, remotely via the web, to monitor and optimize the global energy consumption, both
electric and thermal. The results achieved in the 2015-18 three-year period have allowed savings of
over 9,000 MWh with a consequent reduction of approximately 4,800 tons of CO2 emissions into the
atmosphere.

Margot Pinault - Policy Officer, European Commission, Directorate General


for Energy, Unit C.3- Energy Efficiency, Buildings and Finance Team
Keynote: “Accelerating the transition to clean energy and sustainable buidings- the EU
policy and funding”
The presentation will recall the EU Climate and Energy policy objectives for 2030 and the EU long-term
decarbonisation strategy scenarios. It will further develop on the EU legislative framework to achieve
these objectives. Finally it will go through the Commission proposals for the next Multiannual Financial
Framework programmes adopted last year, with the specific focus on the support to energy transition
and buildigns sustainability.

Eng. Niccolò Elia Sovico & Sergio Pedolazzi - Founders and Management
Team of Ener2Crowd
Keynote: “Crowdsourcing Sustainable Places”
Financing should not be the barrier that blocks our ambitions toward meeting the sustainable
development goals and our energy and emissions targets. Moreover, we believe the "average
people" want to get involved, care and are willing to make a difference. For that reason, we founded
and launched ENER2CROWD, a crowdsourcing platform dedicated to sustainability projects.
Although new today, we believe crowdsourcing will be mainstream tomorrow. In this keynote, we'll tell
you our ambitions for ENER2CROWD will disrupt the sustainability financing landscape and empower
everyone to take an active role in the energy transition towards a completely green economy.

Annalisa Bonfiglio - President CRS4 – Centro di Ricerca, Sviluppo e Studi


Superiori in Sardegna (Center for Advanced Studies, Research and
Development in Sardinia)
Keynote: “From the Smart City to the Smart Island: life-improving projects based on digital
technologies”
Since more than 25 yrs, CRS4 has been involved in several research projects focused on digital
technologies applied to biosciences, energy, environmental sciences, cultural heritage, human
interactions, etc. More recently, these research efforts have been focused on the development of
technological projects for the smart city of Cagliari, trying to take into account the complexity deriving
from applying digital technologies to the typical processes of a medium-size, ancient, Italian city,
located in an island just in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea. The next challenge is to extend this
approach to the entire island of Sardinia, trying to make a successful matching between technology
and socio-economical aspects of the territory.
Performance and Park visit

Day 2: “Lughente e Sùtile Lughe"-


Lucide Sottile performance
A woman has the supernatural gift of modifying the fate of people, by snatching them from the arms of death
and giving them a new opportunity to live.
Elena, from the Ancient Greek “Elène” which means torch, shimmering, shining, is wrapped in her own destiny:
the thread of life.
Together with the thread of life that she commands and that at the same time commands, dominates and
imprisons her, she generates a tormented dance. Elena takes actions to graft herself into death and then
block the outcome.
These actions weaken her: time after time she loses some of her life. Elena dies to save someone, then comes
back to life and start over.

Day 3: Parco Naturale Regionale


Molentargius-Saline
Immediately following the event on the afternoon of 7th June, the organizing committee is making available
a guided visit to the Molentargius-Saline natural park which covers over 1600 hectares and which is famous for
the numerous colonies of flamingos that live there. Since the decommissioning of the salt extraction activities,
the park has been redeveloped and transformed into what is now one of the richest birdlife park of Sardinia.
The park is ideal for an experience in contact with nature, just five minutes away from the city centre and the
guided tour will allow you to discover the characteristics and peculiarities of the area.
