DESCRIPTION and OBJECTIVES
The sesac community in Delft aims to reach a 33,500 tons CO2 reduction compared to 1990. The
city council adopted the 3E Climate Plan 2003-2012. A major project is the use
of low temperature residual heat in several building locations.
In the
demonstration areas of Poptahof and Harnaschpolder, part of the Delft community active in the sesac project, the final energy demands are specified by
CONCERTO constraints. Designers use specific insulation values and are free to
choose further measures to reach these targets. The targets reached in the
CONCERTO demonstration areas are even beyond Dutch regulations. The social
housing renovation dwellings reach an energy performance equal to the present
national standard applicable for new dwellings.
The first phase in the
refurbishment program in Poptahof and the new dwellings in the Harnaschpolder
area are part of the demonstration sites.
High-rise refurbishment buildings
in Poptahof, include a dedicated Heat Transport Company which transports heat
from the industrial site to building locations. Heat distribution and back up
takes place within the individual building locations. In Poptahof, a 10 kWp
photovoltaic (PV) system is mounted on the southern façade of one of the
demonstration apartment buildings. |
