Passivhaus Retrofit focuses on the renovation of buildings to help them reach their full energy-efficiency potential and Passivhaus standards of comfort and health. Where the Passivhaus classic standard is typically geared around the creation of new build houses, the EnerPHit standard was introduced in 2010 created to bring existing buildings up to date and to meet the world leading Passivhaus EnerPHit standards. This course will offer an introduction to the benefits of Passivhaus retrofit and discuss how to communicate with clients. We’ll delve into the Retrofit processes and share details on the various toolkits which are available and discuss the differences between Passivhaus and Energiesprong retrofit. We’ll cover the EnerPHit standard and look at what we’ve learned through the lived experience of a Passivhaus architect and finally, will present some case studies with technical data from a range of project shapes and sizes.Introduction – Benefits of Passivhaus retrofitThis session will give an introduction and overview of the EnerPHit standard in the UK.
