Energy Efficiency in Buildings

Solutions

Achieving higher energy efficiency in buildings

Energy consumption in buildings currently accounts for over 40% of all energy consumed in Europe. This is by far the greatest share of total energy consumption, ahead of transport and industrial production. Higher targets for energy savings and reduced CO2 emissions can be achieved by combining perfectly co-ordinated components to create efficient, fully integrated systems.

Condensing boiler technology

Since the largest portion of energy is consumed by the generation of heat in buildings, the renovation of heating systems is one of the areas offering the greatest potential for savings.

Insulation

Older builds often do not meet the latest insulation standards and use disproportionately large amounts of heat energy for room heating. However, with a professional energy-saving renovation, any building can be as well insulated as a new build.

Lighting

A large proportion of electricity consumption in buildings is accounted for by artificial lighting. This is directly reflected in the running costs of many buildings.
