Abstract

This work, the city of Santos-SP was analyzed, starting from a historical and urban contextualization, highlighting the most influential sectors of the city, as well as the current master plan of Santos. Therefore, a survey of energy consumption data was carried out, including electricity, petroleum products (diesel oil, gasoline), ethanol and natural gas. All this information was standardized in TOE (Equivalent Tonne of Oil) units and a Sankey diagram was performed, it was found that transport is the sector with the highest energy consumption in the city. For the energetic and exegetical analysis, with the collected data, the input and destroyed exergy were calculated for the different types of fuel and the exergetic efficiency of the city was calculated as 19.70%. Finally, calculation of CO2 emissions from fuels was performed, resulting in 641,151,042.6 kg CO2 equivalent. The result for CO2 emissions is very close to that estimated by the Municipality of Santos, although Santos is a city that stands out for a master plan that intends to be a smart city in the future and has a low efficiency in terms of energy consumption.
