    Sammanfattning : With the building sector accounting for around 40% of the total energy consumption in the EU, energy efficiency in buildings is and continues to be an important issue. Great progress has been made in reducing the energy consumption in new buildings, but the large stock of existing buildings with poor energy performance is probably an even more crucial area of focus.

  7. 25. Making sense of and managing energy targets in public construction-client organisations

    Författare :Kjerstin Ludvig; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Energy-Efficient Building; Actors; Discursive competences; Strategic Change; Managing Energy-Efficiency in Practice; Energy Targets; Renovation; Sensemaking; Case studies;

    Sammanfattning : The built environment is acknowledged as having a large potential to reduce society’s energy use and has a major responsibility to contribute to mitigating climate change. In Sweden, it has been suggested that public organisations should take a leading role, and serve as good examples in the development of energy-efficient building. LÄS MER
