Refurbishment of a Historical Industrial Building at Lavrio, Greece, to Improve Energy Efficiency
Regeneration of old industrial areas and refurbishment of historic buildings can improve the attractiveness' of an area and create new employment opportunities. Such activities can also provide the opportunity to install innovative renewable energy technologies and measures to make rational use of energy. Use of these systems can result in a reduction in energy consumption and emissions of C02, and in enhanced environ-s mental protection.
In this project at Lavrio, a small-scale gas-fired Combined Heat and Power (CHP) plant has been installed to produce electricity and heat for a refurbished building, which is part of a new technology park. Space heating is by means of recirculation of air through ducts2 in the walls and roof, j
Cooling is achieved by use of absorption chillers3 using heat recovered from the CHP unit. Lighting is obtained by a combination of natural and artificial lighting, and innovative, transparent, insulation materials are used in the roof and windows to allow natural lighting without compromising energy efficiency. The control of all of the new components is by means of an integrated building management system and any surplus of power or energy will be used by other installations and buildings in the technology park.
Successful demonstration of the innovative technologies used in this project to capitalize on the expertise gained and multiply the positive impacts on energy conservation, employment and environmental protection.
