Net zero or plus energy buildings will establish themselves as the new building standard of the future. In Uster, detailed monitoring has been carried out over two years of the first MINERGIE-A certified building in the canton of Zurich with office use as part of Annex 49.
Massive Bauteile wie Betondecken bieten eine hohe thermische Masse zur Speicherung von Wärme und Kälte und zur Dämpfung der Raumtemperatur. Mit dem Industriepartner Barcol-Air Group AG, Schwerzenbach, ist ein innovatives Hybridkühldeckenmodul mit Betondeckenaktivierung im Rahmen eines Innosuisse Projekts entwickelt worden,…
The Black & White building in Pfäffikon SZ is centrally located and combines commercial use on the ground floor, office use on the first two upper floors and multi-family residential use on the third and fourth floors and the attic of the building. The field measurements evaluated over a year and the simulations carried out…
In a concept study, the Eichwies and Schachen sites in Rapperswil-Jona were investigated with regard to a future-oriented and sustainable energy supply. Due to good heat sources on the sites, a net zero energy balance can be achieved for the sites with the installation of photovoltaics on the roof and on the building…
All new buildings in Europe must be designed as net zero energy buildings (nZEB) from 1 January 2021. Building technology concepts for achieving these requirements are therefore of great interest. Heat pump systems are emerging as standard solutions for nZEB due to their high efficiency. On behalf of the Swiss Federal…
In the Swiss Competence Center of Energy Research (SCCER) on Efficiency in Industrial Processes (EIP), Work Package 4 (WP4) looks at the possibilities for integrating water and energy use in buildings. The IET is investigating the reuse of treated grey or waste water for cooling purposes via evaporative cooling. Together…
