Abstract

Sustainable buildings have to be comfortable, affordable, aesthetically pleasing and energy efficient with regard to their construction and operation. Lightweight buildings with integrated smart technologies can meet such ambitious goals. In order to demonstrate and analyse the potential of low-energy systems for such buildings, the 'Energy Efficiency Center' (EEC) was developed and realized by the Center for Applied Energy Research, Würzburg (ZAE Bayern) and Lang Hugger Rampp Architects, Munich. The building was inaugurated in June 2013. This paper covers the most important features of this innovative building and describes the performance of this forward-looking demonstration project.
