Building of Tomorrow Building of Tomorrow PLUSPLUS

Building of Tomorrow (1999–2007) 750 proposal - 250 research projects

25 Mio EUR project funding

25 demonstration projects

Austria has the highest density of passive houses worldwide

Boom for sustainable renovation and construction

Innovative technologies and products / services

Successful construction industry and consulting companies

Background

Utendorfgasse: social housing in passive house standard, Vienna

construction costs less than 1055 €/m²passive house standard (≤ 15 kWh/m²a, ≤ 10 W/m², n50 ≤ 0,6/h)primary energy consumption ≤ 120 kWh/m²a

New buildings

Demonstration building „Tschechenring“, Felixdorf, Lower Austria

renovation of a historical workers‘ development from 1880 extension of housing space by attic development thermal optimization of the envelope with interior insulation due to

the protected facade comparable costs to conventional building methods use of renewable energy (central wood chips heating)

Historical buildings

historical

Renovation of the School in Schwanenstadt, Upper Austria

Public buildings (II)

first passive house renovation of a school

use of prefabricated wooden elements

reduce of heat use of 400 MWh/a compared to existing building

additional costs of 8 % for renovation to passive house standard

substantial gain of quality for users
