1 Lund, May 13, 2013 Buildings of tomorrow Reduction of energy use and increased use of renewable energy Maria Wall Energy and Building Design Lund University, Sweden Energy costs are increasing Increased interest in climate and environmental issues Directives from the EU (energy-efficiency, renewable energy supply, CO 2 -emmissions, reach zero-energy energy buildings in 2020 etc) Increased interest in building passive houses and other low-energy buildings Maria Wall / Lund University 1

2 The passive house principle Solar collector for Domestic Hot Water Well insulated and airtight building envelope Window airing and shading during warm periods Vestibule Illustration: Pertti Salonen Heating supplied by electricity or hot water (from district heating, biomass burner etc) Mechanical ventilation with heat recovery (80%) 180 Energy Use 160 Delivered energy (kwh/ /m²a) Household Electricity Fans & Pumps Domestic Hot Water Space Heating ** - 60%! 0 Existing houses * *Source: The Swedish Energy Agency 14.3 Lindås (monitored) **) contribution from solar collectors: 8.9 kwh/m²a Total DHW use: = 24.1 kwh/m²a Maria Wall / Lund University 2

3 Development and learning process 2001 Lindås Research and development funded by Formas and EU Monitoring i and evaluations of the project in Lindås Glumslöv Värnamo Frillesås Lidköping Alingsås And more projects Landskrona plan for new passive houses and exhibitions New apartment buildings planned by the same client New buildings planned by the same client And more Not OR but AND Popular to discuss in terms of - Passive houses/low-energy energy houses OR district heating? - District heating OR solar energy systems? - Concrete construction OR wooden construction? - Biomass OR solar energy OR wind power? No single solution is possible We do not have unlimited No single solution is possible. We do not have unlimited recourses of renewables We need many different solutions and combinations to reach the goals! Maria Wall / Lund University 3

4 Integrate solar systems in buildings IEA Solar Heating and Cooling Programme Task 41: Solar Energy and Architecture Reduce the energy demand Increase the use of renewable energy This will increase the use of the building envelope as an active solar collector! thus, highly influence the building s architecture and the urban landscape Solar systems with high performance X no acceptability = No performance! Operating Agent: Maria Wall, Lund University, Sweden Maria Wall / Lund University 4

7 My vision 2050 Fulfill a net zero energy balance of buildings (clusters), for new buildings and existing buildings! healthy, comfortable and affordable - NZEB means buildings with a very low energy demand d and with renewable energy supply - Use building envelopes as energy producers as well - Energy and environmental issues a natural part of the design process and building design not only in good examples - Follow up on building performance. Lessons learnt, used in new building projects. The vision - and the opportunity - is to make architectural design a driving force for the use of solar energy Photo: EPFL-LESO Solar Energy and Architecture / Maria Wall Sunny Woods, residential building Beat Kämpfen Architects, Switzerland Maria Wall / Lund University 7
