OTS - Reliable climate protection with Passive House
2021. July 15. 16:23
Darmstadt, Germany, 15 July, 2021 (APA/OTS) - Happy Birthday!
Passive House is celebrating its 30th anniversary. The
ground-breaking project by Professor Wolfgang Feist paved the way
for highly energy efficient buildings. Passive House buildings
consume significantly less energy for heating and cooling and are
therefore pivotal to global climate protection. The Passive House
standard is leading the way for a significant reduction in the
building sector's share of approximately 40 % of global CO2
emissions. International beacon projects are competing for the
Passive House Award 2021. The architectural award will be handed
over by the Passive House Institute at the 25th International
Passive House Conference in September.
"Of course, I'm happy about this development: seeing the
progress from the first experimental residential building to the
projects and districts worldwide designed to the Passive House
standard", explains building physicist Wolfgang Feist.
Nevertheless, the Passive House pioneer makes it clear that
"without significantly greater commitment on the part of the
governments, there will be very little progress in the energy
efficient construction of buildings."
Passive House Award
Today, 30 years after the first Passive House building
kindergartens, schools, sports halls, supermarkets, indoor swimming
pools, museums and entire districts to the Passive House standard
are a matter of course. These buildings constitute an important
contribution to effective climate protection and social equality.
The high level of living comfort is an added bonus.
More than 80 projects from 19 countries are competing for the
Passive House Award 2021. The presentation of this Award with a
special focus on regenerative energy will be live-streamed during
the 25th International Passive House Conference. The conference
will take place in September in Wuppertal, Germany, and online: 16
lecture series will be dealing with energy efficient construction
and retrofitting topics. https://passivehouseconference.org
