Summary:Denmark is participating in IEA EBC Annex 56 “Cost Effective Energy and Carbon Emissions Optimization in Building Renovation”. The housing complex Traneparken has been chosen as a Danish case study for the project. It has been retrofitted with new facades, new windows, additional insulation, mechanical ventilation with heat recovery and a photo-voltaic installation on the roof. The measured energy consumption for heating and domestic hot water before and after renovation was 736 MWh/year and 506 MWh/year respectively. Hereby, the project has demonstrated that the renovation resulted in significant energy savings.This paper presents results from the Danish case study.
