1 Cost-optimal energy retrofitting of apartment buildings Janne Hirvonen Juha Jokisalo, Juhani Heljo, Risto Kosonen

2 Background EU targets: significant emissions reductions needed -4% by 23-8% by 25 Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) nzeb requirements Most buildings have been built in the 197s and 198s Energy renovation Apartment building ages

3 Research questions How much can emissions be reduced in Finnish apartment buildings by doing energy renovation? What are the cost-optimal and maximum performance solutions? Thermal insulation, heat recovery, solar energy, windows? How do the solutions differ with respect to building age?

4 Building information AB1: <1976 Mechanical exhaust ventilation, no heat recovery AB2: Mechanical exhaust ventilation, no heat recovery AB3: Mechanical supply-exhaust ventilation, heat recovery AB4: 21< Mechanical supply-exhaust ventilation, heat recovery Heating system options District heating GSHP + electric boiler EAHP + district heating

5 Simulation-based optimization Minimize LCC Minimize emissions
