For example, the energy requirement can be significantly reduce if the air handling unit (RLT) is equipped with modern, energy-efficient air conditioning and improved fans. This would save about 70 percent of the energy required for the operation of the plant. The insulation of the building envelope and the replacement of the window, another ten percent can be saved by the primary energy demand of the building. Profitability calculations showed that the investments needed by the resulting cost savings can be short term refinance. More significant consumption savings can be realized through the use of renewable energy sources. That in particular the use of solar energy is. For example, a roof sealing foil with integrated photovoltaic modules can be used for the insulation of the flat roof.

And can be a solar panel on the roof of the Office tract install, which lowers the energy needed for the hot water to a quarter. The calculation results to the actual state of the building and the building show that insulation and sealing the building envelope measures particularly pay off, if at the same time building technology improves”, explained Afonja, the expert for the energy efficiency of buildings is. The greatest improvements can be achieved through savings in primary energy consumption. All proposed measures are fully implemented, the costs for primary energy to one-third of the initial value. Sascha Gutzeit of the RKW Hessen gave an overview of the Hessen-PIUS Advisory Programme and the associated funding. Interested in more detailed information see. Companies who want to learn about a PIUS consultation and promotion of the country, contact Kay Uwe Bolduan by the RKW Hessen GmbH in Eschborn:, phone: 0 61 96 / 97 02-40. “The Hessen-PIUS on-site information series: protect the environment, reduce costs” is performed by the Aktionslinie Hessen-Umwelttech of the Hessian Ministry of economics.

Cooperation partners are the RKW Hessen and several partners of the regional economic development.
