Summary: Given the exponential growth of urbanization of cities and greater pressure on essential services, we have been witnessing a paradigm shift towards a more intelligent energy infrastructure, with greater efficiency, new revenue potentials and a cleaner and greener future. In recent years, there has been increasing competitiveness from governments and industry regarding the use of technology in almost all aspects of daily operations. The framework of this is the Smart City study towards a smarter and more sustainable city. This thesis thus aims at understanding the concept of Smart City, with the focus on energy efficiency versus environmental pollution targets. Throughout the thesis, the case of Bosch Termotecnologia S.A. will be studied, regarding to the heat pump industry. The purpose of this work is the ecological analysis of potential refrigerant alternatives for heat pump systems owing to the future limitation of fluorinated refrigerants with a high greenhouse risk.

Nos últimos anos, tem havido uma crescente competitividade dos governos e da indústria no que diz respeito ao uso de tecnologia em quase todos os aspetos das operações diárias. O enquadramento deste e outros problemas das novas megacidades inserem-se no estudo da Smart City, a nova cidade que procura ser inteligente na utilização das infraestruturas, na incorporação dos desenvolvimentos tecnológicas com um objetivo claro de sustentabilidade. A presente dissertação procura assim compreender as temáticas das Smart Cities, com um maior foco na dimensão da eficiência energética versus as metas de poluição ambiental. Ao longo da dissertação, será estudado o caso da Bosch Termotecnologia S.A., em relação à indústria de bombas de calor.2026-07-20T00:00:00Z2021-07-14T00:00:00Z2021-07-14info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10773/32062engLopes, Mariana Filipa do Soutoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/embargoedAccessreponame:Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP)instname:FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiainstacron:RCAAP2024-05-06T04:33:46Zoai:ria.ua.pt:10773/32062Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireinfo@rcaap.ptopendoar:https://opendoar.ac.uk/repository/71602025-05-28T14:12:47.339050Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP) - FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiafalse
