Sustainability Report
Operational Emissions / Energy
Energy concept
- Energy efficiency: The InnoDom is designed for minimal energy consumption, with a high-grade facade, energy-efficient technology, a heat recovery system, and low thermal bridging.
- Energy source: The InnoDom utilises a remote heating/cooling network and electricity supplied by mf-Energie GmbH using the university teaching hospital grid.
- Energy consumption: The InnoDom’s primary energy requirement is approximately half of the requirement for energy performance certification.
- Ground-floor cooling: Base-load cooling via underfloor cooling, with peak load coverage and personal settings through ceiling-mounted radiant cooling profiles.
- Ground-floor heating: Provided by underfloor heating.
- Upper floor cooling and heating: Basic cooling via concrete core temperature conditioning, with heating through concrete core temperature conditioning and ceiling-mounted heating panels.
Facade
- Glazed elements can be partially opened for additional ventilation and to allow smoke to escape.
- Textile sun-shading, controlled by a zip, is positioned on the outside of the building, between the pilaster strips and the mullion/transom structure.
- The curtain facade can be dismantled and its materials reused or recycled. No composite materials were used.
Materials
- Troldtekt cement-bonded wood wool panels were used for the core (C2C and GSBC certified).
- NoraPlan rubber was used on the upper floors (GSBC, Blauer Engel).
- Ligno wood acoustic cladding for the homebases (natureplus certification).
- Recyclable outdoor furniture from Fermob.
- The office fit-out predominantly uses steel, wood, linoleum, and fabrics, which can be recycled or contain a significant proportion of recycled materials, such as PET felt.
