OUR BUILDINGS Long-term Strategies for Deep Energy Retro tting

Etropole Strategy and pilot projects for renovation of the municipal Project “Accelerating climate action building stock buildings – Strengthening civil society and policy makers in and ”

BPIE Goals of Municipality

STRATEGIC GOAL The implementation of comprehensive and ambitious energy efficiency projects in all inhabited public buildings with actual potential for energy savings and increased use of “The benefits of local renewable energy sources to provide an optimal environment for the energy efficiency are provision of high quality public services undeniable.” and to attract private investment to support the transformation of Etropole into a preferred place for living and professional development of young

The administrative building has The average temperature in the external conditions. There is great hollow brick walls with reinforced building is low, the heating system potential for energy savings if the concrete structure. The hip roof is old, in some places even clogged boiler is replaced with air-to-water is wooden with an attic space. and inefficient, and fails to heat heat pumps or VRV/VRF systems. The roof structure was repaired in the building sufficiently. This The roof of the building can also be 2011. The majority of the windows leads to reduced comfort in the used for energy production, with in the building are wooden, building. To compensate for the the potential to deploy photovoltaic installed during the construction lack of heat, some employees use capacities up to 23.5 kWp. of the building. They are in poor air conditioners in the rooms, as Despite the poor characteristics condition, crooked and with poor well as electric heaters to raise of the building envelope and the aesthetic appearance. In addition the temperature in the rooms. boiler, due to the good shape factor to the wooden windows, the During the summer months, the and the low energy consumption building also has metal windows installed individual split systems of appliances and lighting, the and aluminum doors with thermal are used for cooling. Most of building falls into a class of bridges. There are no effective them are inverter and with energy consumption higher than thermal insulation materials very high seasonal efficiency. the average values ​​for buildings used on the building envelope.

Etropole Municipal Administration The building is inhabited by 54 walls, roof and floor are much higher The building has an energy employees and has about 7 visitors than the normative ones, which consumption class C and has the BASIC DATA ABOUT on weekdays. It is occupied for shows significant potential for potential for savings up to class A+. 9 hours a day, 5 days a week. The energy savings when implementing THE SITE: heating is managed with local measures on the building envelope. heating installation with a gas The windows and doors are old NAME: Administrative building with 3 above-ground floors and 1 unheated semi- oil boiler without the necessary and crooked and some of them Etropole Municipal Administration basement floor.

THIRD STEP: This step is to improve the indoor air quality - it was set at a later date because the local community has not yet fully realised the importance of installing ventilation in workplaces and homes. However, since the initiation of the first step, the installation of ventilation is planned and therefore the necessary openings are provided. In addition to ventilation, two measures which only lead to a reduction in energy consumption from conventional sources are envisaged.

12 | | 13 Comfort and benefits

Besides the financial benefits of implementing the measures - long- term savings and environmental benefits from reducing greenhouse gas emissions, there are also social and health benefits for residents and society. Such health benefits are present in each of the steps, improving sound comfort (step 1), thermal comfort (step 1 and step 2) and indoor air quality (step 3). The social benefit comes from improving the aestetics of the building located in the city center (step 1). Since it is the Municipal Admini- stration building, the focus on improving the air quality in the city is also integral and this is achieved by reducing emissions from the building’s heating process (steps 1 and 2) and the use of green energy (step 3), produced locally. The enhancement of the building’s aestetics and thus the city centre after the reconstruction of the facade of the building is achieved (step 1).
