Gade­haveg­ård

MAJOR ENERGY RENOVATION

When:

2016

Where:

Taastrup

M2:

72.000

Builder:

DOMEA, EUPD støtte

The project concerns an energy opti­miza­tion of a large hous­ing devel­op­ment from DOMEA in Copenhagen.

Gade­haveg­ård is a larger public hous­ing devel­op­ment with a living area of approx. 72,000 m², which before the reno­va­tion was desig­nated as a poten­tial ghetto. At the start of the project, it was there­fore essen­tial to draw up a compre­hen­sive plan that took into account both construc­tion engi­neer­ing, energy and social issues. The project is supported with EUPD funds.

In addi­tion to giving the build­ing a more invit­ing appear­ance, the reno­va­tion has also achieved an energy saving of 85 percent, and the build­ing was Denmark’s most energy-effi­cient public hous­ing block when it was handed over in 2016 – regard­less of whether you look at reno­va­tion or new construction.

ENERGY SAVINGS OF 85%

As a start-up, BJERG prepared a pre-inspec­tion study, which resulted in a report with, among other things, energy screen­ing. Based on this, we held resi­dent meet­ings and work­shops to under­stand the prob­lems and the need

The block serves as a prece­dent for the reno­va­tion of the remain­ing build­ings, which were reno­vated in the coming years. Addi­tional costs combined with the energy savings resulted in a rent price increase of only DKK 190 after renovation.

BJERG Arkitek­tur is the over­all consul­tant for the project, which includes pre-visual inspec­tion, energy screen­ing, master plan and archi­tec­tural advice. In addi­tion, there is respon­si­bil­ity for user involve­ment, archi­tec­tural design incl. energy calcu­la­tions and opti­miza­tion, project manage­ment and construc­tion manage­ment.
