description This paper studies and analyzes the implementation of different types of clean and renewable solar energy in municipal buildings of Soria (Spain). Three different scenarios are analyzed. Firstly the implementation of photovoltaic (PV) solar energy on the roof of municipal buildings, secondly the implementation of hybrid solar energy (including thermal and PV solar energy) in buildings with significant thermal consumption, which corresponds to the buildings with hemmed pool and thirdly, the execution of a PV generation system with storage through a hydraulic structure, with the support of the grid. The aim is to satisfy the electricity and/or thermal demand of the municipal buildings and of a specific area of the city, the Castle Park and River area, as well as promoting self-consumption with renewable distributed generation in cities. This last aim is included within the Sustainable and Integrated Urban Development Strategies of the region, which encourages the energy efficiency and the increased use of renewable energy in urban areas.
