Michael Hörner | The IWU building: modernization with Passive House components - concept, costs and operational experience
The new headquarters for the Institut Wohnen und Umwelt (IWU) is an administration building from the 1960s that was comprehensively retrofitted with Passive House components with a particular focus on energy. An attractive ""new"" building was thus built whose lifecycle has been extended by another 50 years. Special attention was paid to summertime thermal protection with passive elements. The concept can be used for many other buildings built around the same time.
