Accurate quantification of the waste to be generated is essential for both the daily management (shortterm) and proper design of facilities (long-term). Designing without rigorous knowledge may have serious economic and environmental consequences. The present works aims at identifying relevant socio-economic features of municipalities regarding Household Waste (HW) generation by means of factor models. Factor models face two main drawbacks, data collection and identifying relevant explanatory variables within a heterogeneous group. Grouping similar characteristics observations within a group may favour the deduction of more robust models. The methodology followed has been tested with Biscay Province because it stands out for having very different municipalities ranging from very rural to urban ones. Two main models are developed, one for the overall province and a second one after clustering the municipalities. The results prove that relating municipalities with specific characteristics, improves the results in a very heterogeneous situation. The methodology has identified urban morphology, tourism activity, level of education and economic situation as the most influencing characteristics in HW generation.

However, at present, these two worlds cannot remain separated any more, as long as intelligent buildings become another node of the grid. This paper shows that this integration can be performed in practice as long as a harmonized knowledge/data model for the two worlds can be defined. This paper describes how this harmonized model can be achieved, how it can be implemented as part of a smart grid node, and how it could work and be deployed in a case study.
