IMMOFINANZ Group: Green Building Award for the Bureau am Belvedere
24.04.2012 / 11:17
---------------------------------------------------------------------
On 18 April IMMOFINANZ Group received the European Commission's Green
Building Annual Award 2012 in the category 'Renovation' for the Bureau am
Belvedere. The modernisation of these offices reduced energy consumption by
74.85%, which represents annual savings of 848.9 MWh. The awards ceremony
took place at the '7th International Conference on Improving Energy
Efficiency in Commercial Buildings' in Frankfurt.
The Green Building Programme is an environmental protection initiative
supported by the European Commission, which is designed to reduce energy
consumption in private and public office buildings. Projects from the
programme's partners were honoured at last week's official awards ceremony.
A significant improvement in energy efficiency led the jury to select the
Bureau am Belvedere for this prize over 18 other competing buildings.
Eduard Zehetner, Chairman of the Executive Board of IMMOFINANZ Group, on
this recognition: 'After LEED Gold certification, this award is a further
confirmation that our concept for the property is working. The Bureau am
Belvedere was one of the buildings selected from over 600 projects - that
is a distinctive honour and we are particularly pleased. Specially directed
revitalisation can also transform standing investments into sustainable,
energy-efficient buildings.'
The Bureau am Belvedere is located at a central site on Prinz-Eugen-Strasse
in the fourth district of Vienna. As part of the general renovation, it was
refitted with a high-quality facade made of Danube limestone that provides
optimal thermal insulation. This energy-efficient construction method has
led to in international LEED Gold certification and now also to the Green
Building Award for the Bureau am Belvedere.
