Building AdVent.
The Building AdVent Project Mankind’s contribution to climate change through gross consumption of energy and the associated CO2 emissions that accompany this, is a well established phenomenon. Energy use by ventilation losses and fans accounts for almost 10% of energy use in the EU. About 1/3 of this could be saved through improved ventilation systems. The Building AdVent project will disseminate information to designers on 18 non-domestic buildings that are examples of successfully implemented low energy ventilation systems. The buildings are spread throughout the various climates of Europe. This project will greatly contribute to the use of low energy systems by disseminating information on actual buildings that incorporate low energy techniques, thereby helping to overcome a general lack of knowledge and confidence amongst engineers and architects. This project has been developed through discussions and a contractual agreement between the partners involved. It has been funded by the Intelligent Energy Executive Agency (IEEA), which was created by the European Commission to implement the Intelligent Energy Europe (IEE) programme.
