Building diagnosis: Energy update for older properties

A great many commercial properties and private homes in Germany are more than 25 years old. This means that in most cases they lack not only comfort and convenience but also modern building services of the kind which would enable them to save energy.

Studies indicate that there is potential in Germany for saving around EUR 40 billion a year in heating costs and cutting carbon dioxide emissions by 150 million tons a year. The prerequisite: refurbishing older properties in a way that takes energy factors into greater consideration.

Here, HOCHTIEF can help by means of building diagnosis. This offers clients a comprehensive analysis of their properties and represents a field where know-how from different corporate units is systematically focused to provide an integrated service offer. If required, recommendations can be made for optimizing and revitalizing properties. In some case, though, the best option is to construct something new.
