Project details
BMS Future Building (commercial building)
Project target
"The aim of the project is to demonstrate that it is possible with the use of innovative technologies and/or the innovative interplay of existing technologies to produce, in a building in the city centre with a typical mixed use of housing and industry or commerce, more energy than is required. The building is being converted within the project into a plus-energy building."
| Time period | 2012 to 2014 |
|---|---|
| Target group | Building owners, commercial tenants, architects, energy consultants, craftsmen/tradesmen |
| Project idea | "The show houses/buildings are used as illustrative material showing successful energy-related refurbishment in the pilot area. They represent the current state of research and serve as test fields for innovations. Interested experts and non-professionals get the opportunity to experience modern building services in operation and to obtain information about the possibilities of efficient building refurbishment. Via a competition a suitable building was determined. This is currently being refurbished and modernised comprehensively with the substantial support of the corporate partners to produce a future building (aim = plus-energy building). The success of the measures is being determined and documented by extensive monitoring (approx. 24 months)."
