STEAM Design aims were:
- Plant flexibility guaranteeing individual management of heating and cooling ambient parameters;
- Remote control of individual areas with possible management of switching times and plant shutdown, possibility of excluding not used areas;
- Use of renewable and alternative energy sources (supported by technical and economic analysis);
- Operating costs control;
- Operation Guarantee even in disasters and emergency events least heating;
- Space and plants flexibility for future revision of internal partitions;
- Plants accessibility and ease of maintenance.
It was also performed an acoustic study in order to assess noise sources compatibility introduced by STEAM project compared to urban context in which it is inserted, with reference to national legislation.
