3D Dashboard – Building Energy Balance

A Streamlit application presenting the energy balance and progress of municipal building portfolio energy policies toward 2050 targets. The interface combines a sidebar menu, KPIs, charts, and a simplified 3D building visualization (Plotly) to tell the story of consumption evolution, energy mix, and photovoltaic production.

Live demo: https://3d-dashboard-energy-balance-building.streamlit.app/

Features

• Sidebar navigation: seamless switching between Overview, Heating, Electricity, and Photovoltaics pages
• Real-time KPIs: annual variations, installation portfolio, achieved/remaining targets with dynamic updates
• 3D Plotly visualization: building volume with symbolic positioning of photovoltaic panels
• Interactive charts: bar charts and line graphs for consumption trends and energy savings
• Progress indicators: gauge charts for tracking 2025 (x2) and 2030 (x5) photovoltaic targets
• Data integration: automatic loading from CSV files with fallback to default values

Pages & Content

• Overview: KPI summary (heating −8% in 2023, electricity −4.8% in 2023, ~1 GWh/yr PV, 42 oil-fired boiler rooms remaining)
• Heating: demand reduction, dynamic regulation (37 buildings equipped in 2023, ~146,000 kWh saved mid-Oct → end-Dec), glazing retrofit (128 buildings, ~20% savings), oil phase-out and district heating connections
• Electricity: −4.8% trend in 2023 despite portfolio growth, effects of renovations and optimizations
• Photovoltaics: 46 plants in service, ~1 GWh/yr produced, self-consumption on 14 sites, surplus injected (SIG), x2 by 2025 and x5 by 2030 trajectories

Data Integration

The application automatically loads KPIs from data/kpis_energie.csv with intelligent fallbacks. Values displayed illustrate the scale and targets mentioned (2023 data and 2025/2030 goals). The app is ready to connect to real data sources (CSV/Excel/database) to automatically feed KPIs and charts.

CSV Integration Example

1. Add a data/kpis_energie.csv file with columns: annee, conso_chauffage_delta, conso_elec_delta, pv_centrales, pv_prod_gwh, mazout_chaufferies, part_gaz_pct
2. The app automatically loads the file via pandas.read_csv and maps columns to KPIs
3. If the file is missing or corrupted, the app gracefully falls back to default values
