The Three Litre House in Ludwigshafen for example, was part of a major refurbishment project of an entire 70 year old quarter called Brunck.
Through an urban development plan, the refurbishment aimed not only at improving the energy performance of buildings, but also at improving the quality of life in the quarter and making the homes and the surroundings again attractive for the tenants.
Thanks to Elastopor® H, the historical features of an Hamburg ’s port building could be preserved without compromising its global energy performance.
Thanks to its optimal energy performance and its economic reproducibility the “Three Litre House” in Rome will be taken as model for the development of an important urban area around Rome, thus contributing to a more healthy way of life for the inhabitants and to a better environment.
The “Bâtiment Génération E” near Paris shows that, through a careful design combined with intelligent construction solutions, healthy, energy efficient homes can also be affordable for the social housing sector.
The BASF Near Zero Energy Home-Paterson, N.J., will serve as a proposed template for the City of Paterson's ongoing project to build 3,000 affordable housing units.
Paterson is one of New Jersey's largest and most economically challenged cities.
Local home construction builders and unskilled labor forces will be encouraged to participate in the project to learn about and implement new energy saving construction techniques into other projects within the region.
In the same way the "Three Litre House" in Kyonggi – Korea, will be the model for an important future urban development. |
