Efficiency House Plus School Building
The Louise Otto-Peters school in Hockenheim, Germany, was the first educational institution to be granted support under the “Efficiency House Plus – Educational Buildings” funding programme. The new build combines three different school types under one roof (a pre-vocational training programme, a vocational upper secondary school and a geriatric nurse / educator training programme) which are attended by up to 280 students in total. The school building is conformant with the Efficiency House Plus standard.
Case study
Hybrid Energy Systems for Integrated Smart Buildings and Cities
A two-day symposium on "Hybrid Energy Systems for Integrated Smart Buildings and Cities" will be co-hosted in Brest by CESI (LINEACT), UBO (IRDL), and ISEN (L@bISEN). The symposium’s objective is to facilitate a high-quality scientific discussion between academia and industry and to create awareness among the students on the importance of sustainable building development. The symposium will cover topics on sustainable buildings, smart grids, and smart cities. These are some of the most important and challenging areas for developing a sustainable environment since buildings are responsible for a high share of global primary energy consumption and CO2 emission.
