1. to recognize the relevance of energy management and know the applicable regulations for energy certification of buildings;
2.  identify obstacles difficulting the design of energy efficient buildings;
3.  to carry out energy audits and analise its results;
4.  to evaluate the influence of maintenance on energy consumption;
5.  to equip buildings with energy efficient technical systems;
6.  to evaluate the influence of automation on installation operation and energy management;
7.  to implement efficient technologies to comply with regulations requirements;
8.  to know how to implement and manage an energy management system.
