In Denmark, the renovation of existing buildings and the construction of energy-efficient new buildings could reduce energy consumption for heating by 80% - corresponding to 30% of the country’s total energy consumption. On a global scale, the potential for energy savings is enormous.
By using existing technologies, such as insulation, air tightness, ventilation, energy-efficient heating systems and renewable energy sources such as solar energy, it is already possible to make buildings CO2 neutral – as well as improving the indoor climate for the buildings residents.
Several Danish companies are among the world-leaders in the areas of insulation, glazing, pumps, meters and other energy saving technologies for buildings.
Thus, using energy more efficiently in both housing and production is an obvious step towards becoming independent of limited energy resources such as fossil fuels. And there is a large potential for doing just that. Saving energy in buildings B...
