“…Adicional a todos estos aspectos, la concientización de la población en torno al uso adecuado de los servicios de salud, la ampliación de la red hospitalaria por parte del Estado y el cambio de paradigma en la atención de los pacientes por parte de los profesionales, son elementos clave para desarrollar una cultura energética integral que involucre a todos los grupos de interés (usuarios, personal de la salud e instituciones públicas) (Wang et al, 2016). En este sentido, el éxito de las alternativas de intervención energética (ver fig.…”

El objetivo del presente artículo es analizar la gestión energética desde la mirada del desarrollo limpio y sostenible en las instituciones prestadoras de servicios de salud en Colombia. El estudio es realizado a través de un enfoque cualitativo con un método de revisión documental de la literatura con información de artículos científicos de los últimos 8 años, ubicados en bases de datos especializadas, esto con el propósito de explorar avances en esta materia a nivel mundial y determinar los aportes que pudiesen ser replicados en el país. Los resultados evidencian la existencia de un respaldo institucional para el desarrollo de la gestión energética, así como, la definición de diversas alternativas y áreas de intervención en función de los diferentes servicios prestados. Se concluye que las fuentes de mayor consumo energético están concentradas en climatización e iluminación, y que las estrategias para reducir costos se relacionan con la optimización de contratos de suministro de energía e instalaciones de centros hospitalarios.

Urban growth in today’s development is an obstacle in providing the sustainable environment. Hospital as care facility takes an important and critical role in a livable environment for the users by its green building services. In conservation strategy, the building should concern on integration preserving the heritage value and planning of all care utilities. Therefore, this research reviews for sustainable and livable heritage hospital and were conducted through research phases as follows: Existing review, sustainable and green planning for critical building services, and environmental analysis using Ecotect Analysis and Matlab software environmental simulation. Dr. Soetomo Hospital is selected as the urban heritage object case. The results highlighted that the urban hospital should have design routes for building services integrated with mass management and architectural concepts as well as landscape design, and standardization of planning and system component life, designing the inner and/or outer rings will be potential planning. By conducting on to the existing high-density buildings evaluation, the building services master plan remains to be used is the zoning system pattern related with heritage conservation strategy. To anticipate the future projection, it is necessary to adjust the environmental performance because the utility system should accommodate the respective heritage for the requirement of facilities, capacity, and technology of green hospital concept.

“…Wang et al (2016) conducted a survey at the Beijing Municipal Health Bureau in order to assess the energy conservation efforts [16]. The results showed that the economic incentives, appropriate technology, enforceable laws and regulations have become the most significant obstacles to the improvement of energy efficiency.…”

Hospitals generate a high amount of carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere compared with residential and commercial buildings. Therefore, it is necessary to quantify and identify the CO 2 emissions derived from energy consumption in hospitals, studying their relationship with functional variables. The aim of this article is to analyze the CO 2 emissions derived from the hospital energy consumption. In Spain, 14 hospitals were analyzed, studying the built surface area and the number of beds in the period 2010-2014. The results showed that in a hospital, the average annual CO 2 emissions divided by built surface area is around 0.10 Ton per m 2 , and the annual CO 2 emissions divided by number of beds is around 13 Ton per bed. These ratios will make it possible to benchmark hospital management and set targets for limiting emissions into the atmosphere.
