35 Energy PLUS School, BNB Gold 35

36 Conclusions on EnOB Experiences 1. We do have the knowledge on suitable energy efficient and sustainable technologies we only have to implement our experience in a reasonable way however Conclusion 2. An Integrated Design Process is inevitable for future Zero or Energy Plus Building Concepts in order to ensure comfort and save energy and operating costs on a life cycle consideration. and please consider 3. If properly designed, energy efficient sustainable buildings will produce no extra building costs and accordingly 4. Successful buildings require good planning by qualified interdisciplinary planners from the very beginning. The investment into a Design Team is the most profitable yield for the client. 36
