“…CSP plants have several plant configurations. These are the following: parabolic trough, solar tower (Zhang et al, 2013), Stirling dish (Kaliakatsos et al, 2017), and Fresnel reflector (Baharoon et al, 2015) within others that are not considered to be in commercial or pilot scale as the open receiver curtain (Ho, 2017). All of these CSP configurations are analyzed in this section.…”

Bibliometric analysis is a key study in order to elucidate the relevance of a research field. This study will point out the main evolution of the research performed in a topic considering the significance of each sub-topic. This study aims to perform a bibliometric analysis in concentrating solar power (CSP) technology. CSP had a first commercial wave between 1984 and 1995. Between 1995 and 2005 there was a period of commercial inactivity. Nevertheless, since 2005 CSP commercial implementation has been accelerating. This topic accounts for almost 6,300 publications on relevant journals and conference proceedings. Regional analysis showed that China is becoming the most relevant country for CSP research. The European Union still leads the development and will continue that way at least in the short term. Authors’ keyword evolution analysis has been useful as an indirect measure of technological maturity. It was found that conference proceedings have an important effect in the overall CSP publications and need to be consider when working within this field. However, the journal publications have more impact since they are more frequently cited. Funding analysis had shown a direct relationship between funding and research output. Finally, it was concluded that inside the CSP field, parabolic trough has shown to have great relevance in the research output.

The term "Smart" in the last decade has often flanked other words to express a new and intelligent way of living in a modern society where you cannot separate the two synergic aspects: Energy and Sustainability. These latter two aspects flow into the new way of managing an isolated territory that often presents difficulties because of no interactions with the surrounding area; to remedy these difficulties has been developed in recent years the "Smart-Island" project, which involves many European countries and several sponsors. The concept of "SmartIsland" defines a way of life in an isolated environment, such as that of these islands, can solve independently, with the use of renewable and sustainable sources the energy needs of the island, with some projects that take into account the preservation and the wealth of the territory. In this paper, after a brief review of what has been proposed in some islands of the world, it will develop a case study, represented by the island of Favignana, which has particular characteristics in relation to its energy dependence.

The Italian hospitals are housed in old buildings, some statistics report refers which they have should be about of fifty years old. Recently new structures were built, but the trend is that over restructure and/or redevelop existing buildings, making by a cost-benefit analysis that supports this choice. The Italian construction industry covers the most part of the national energy requirements, and the hospital have a big energy request because the buildings of different areas with different destinations represent the major demand of the needed energy sector.Hospitals must observe the same climate conditions, although the average fuel consumption is three times more than the average values of the residential construction sector.The energy demand in this sector have been used in different way: air conditioning in summer and winter, ventilation, environments lighting, domestic hot water, steam generation for sterilization and humidification, as well as the request by the kitchens, laundries, domestic transport, computers, diagnostic and therapeutic devices, etc.Furthermore, this demand should be absolutely guaranteed, in particular for the thermal and electrical installations, for everyday of the year.The complexity of the equipment used and the regulatory compliance in terms of temperature, humidity and air flow, it could lead considerable consumption, increasing the difficulty of management plants.However, the hospital buildings have a large energy savings potential, which could be achieved improving efficiency of building-plant systems, management of energy.The air conditioning systems of the hospitalization facility should meet specific technical and functional requirements in order to ensure compliance with the temperature-humidity requirements of itself.The regulatory and legislative system should pay attention to the standards and the eligibility criteria for these environments, such as the rooms to be used as hospital stays, providing a strategy to obtain higher values of comfort and safety.The ABSTRACTIn hospitals, the requirements relating at comfort thermo-hygrometric, lighting and air quality, play a major role and are related, at the characteristics of the building-plant system, and to the activities that take place in it. The climate control of the environments constitutes a major problem in the hospital field, and it has effects not only in the realization of new facilities, but also in the renovations. The systems must be designed and engineered with a full integration with the global project, which is simple in the case of new construction, more difficult in the event of restructuring, since it is necessary to interact with restrictive constraints conditioning, such a distribution of complex and articulated spaces. In design of the systems of a hospital building, two fundamental aspects must be ensured: total control of the thermo-hygrometric parameters (temperature, humidity and air velocity), and the possibility of the control and adjusting -for the single areasof flows and air changes within i...
