    Abstract : Aging buildings will sooner or later be in need of renovation, which opens opportunities to reduce energy use. Even if economically feasible energy measures or technologies exist, they are not always implemented, leading to an energy efficiency gap. READ MORE

  4. 2. Energy use in multi-family dwellings : measurements and methods of analysis

    Author : Hans Bagge; Avdelningen för Byggnadsfysik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; energy use; multi-family dwellings; district heating; space heating; domestic hot water heating; common electricity; household electricity; solar heat gains.;

    Abstract : In 2001, multi-family dwellings were built at nine properties in Västra hamnen, Malmö, Sweden. Several well known Swedish architects were involved in designing the buildings, hence they reflect modern architecture. Prior to the inauguration, the buildings were displayed at the international housing exhibition Bo01. READ MORE

  5. 3. Energy renovation of multi-family buildings in Sweden : An evaluation of life cycle costs, indoor environment and primary energy use, and a comparison with constructing a new building

    Author : Lina La Fleur; Bahram Moshfegh; Patrik Rohdin; Andreas Koch; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Residential buildings account for 27% of the final energy use in the European Union. In cold climates, space heating represents the largest proportion of the energy demand in residential buildings. By implementing energy efficiency measures (EEMs) in existing buildings, energy use can be significantly reduced. READ MORE
