    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

  2. 2. Low-temperature Heating in Existing Swedish Residential Buildings : Toward Sustainable Retrofitting

    Author : Qian Wang; Sture Holmberg; Natasa Nord; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Retrofitting; Low-temperature heating; Energy efficiency; Sustainability; Swedish residential buildings; Renovering; Lågtemperatursuppvärmning; Energieffektivitet; Hållbarhet; Svenska bostadsbyggnader; Energy Technology; Energiteknik;

    Abstract : As an energy-efficient alternative in cold climate countries such as Sweden, low-temperature heating (LTH) technology has shown promising advantages and shortcuts to contribute to the efficiency of heat supply, as well as to the overall sustainability of building performance. The goal of this thesis is to contribute to the development of methodologies and modeling tools to support sustainable retrofitting in the Swedish housing stock. READ MORE

    Abstract : In Sweden, housing accounts for about 23% of all energy consumption. Sweden wants to reach net zero carbon emissions by 2045; as such, it is likely that energy-saving measures for housing will be needed. Many existing buildings have been in operation for 50 years or more and are therefore in need of modernisation. READ MORE
