Approach for the Improvement of Energy Performance of a Stock of Buildings
Abstract
This paper summarizes the work performed by
CSTB, ADEME and the Ministry of equipment in
France to improve the energy performance of the
ministry stock of buildings: 7 millions square meters,
10 000 buildings, wide range of different buildings
of different sizes and uses. The project has four
major phases: analysis of existing tools for energy
performance evaluation, identification of the endusers
of the tools and definition of a building
typology, development of tools adapted to the endusers,
validation and improvement of the tools. Since
the building managers' motivation is an important
factor to improve the energy performance of the
buildings, the study has tried to incorporate the endusers
needs and constraints in the different phases of
tools development.
