European Research Study into NZE Hospitals

This presentation addresses the project “nZEB Hospital Buildings” undertaken in cooperation with the Eindhoven University of Technology and supported by TVVL and REHVA to give information and insight in nZEB developments that will occur in the near future and what the consequences of these developments are for hospital buildings and in particular for building services. Hospitals consume approximately 1% of the primary energy in the Built Environment. Majority of energy is used by the building and building services. The study considers future scenarios of required building performances, functions/usage of the buildings, technological innovations and business case parameters.
