Abstract

Održivi razvoj, obnovljivi izvori energije i energetski učinkovita gradnja zadnjih godina su postali sve prisutnija tema posebice zbog globalnog zatopljenja, sve veće cijene energenata, energetske krize, financijske krize, rata u Ukrajini, promjene političkih i gospodarskih kretanja u Europi i u svijetu. Obnovljivi izvori energije i energetska učinkovitost zbog svega navedenog važna su tema i iznajmljivača kuća za odmor turista i u Hrvatskoj jer iznajmljivači danas sve češće moraju zadovoljiti i standarde održivog razvoja. Ovaj diplomski rad se fokusira na analizu ulaganja i energetskih troškova dviju kuća namijenjenih smještaju turista, s posebnim naglaskom na njihovu energetsku učinkovitost. Kroz studiju slučaja, istraživala se potrošnja energije i ulaganja za dva promatrana objekta, uzimajući u obzir isto klimatsko područje, sezonski period te popunjenost kapaciteta. Usporedbom dviju kuća, primijetila se raznovrsnost strategija za postizanje energetske učinkovitosti. Naime, dok Villa Diana prilagođava potrošnju prema tarifama za električnu energiju, Villa Top Hill koristi solarnu energiju za smanjenje ovisnosti o potrošnji električne energije iz distribucijske mreže. Također, različiti pristupi vodoopskrbi utječu na ukupne troškove. Solarna energija se ističe kao ključni faktor održivosti za Villu Top Hill.

Abstract (english)

Sustainable development, renewable energy sources and energy-efficient construction have become an increasingly present topic in recent years, especially due to global warming, increasing energy prices, the energy crisis, the financial crisis, the war in Ukraine, and changes in political direction and economic trends in Europe and the world. Renewable energy sources and energy efficiency are, because of all of the above, an important topic for renters of holiday homes in Croatia as well, because renters today increasingly have to meet the standards of sustainable development. This thesis focuses on the analysis of investments and energy costs of two houses intended for tourist accommodation, with special emphasis on their energy efficiency. Through a case study, energy consumption and investments were investigated for two observed objects, taking into account the same climatic area, seasonal period and capacity occupancy. By comparing the two houses, a variety of strategies for achieving energy efficiency was noticed. Namely, while Villa Diana adjusts consumption according to electricity tariffs, Villa Top Hill uses solar energy to reduce dependence on electricity consumption form the distribution network. Also, different approaches to water supply affect the total costs. Solar energy stands out as a key sustainability factor for Villa Top Hill.
