Case Studies
Adourable Bagnères, a semi prefabricated EnerPHit
Bagnères de Bigorre, France
Code: CS7
Original situation
A four storey non-residential building from the 1830s located in the dense city centre of Bagnères de Bigorre in the Pyrenean piedmont (FR-65000).
Renovation approach
Just finished checking structural integrity in preparation for the retrofit; likely finsihed in 2024, started in 2022.
Modernisation proposal
Semi prefabricated complete retrofit to the EnerPHit Standard. The front side will be a traditional retrofit since the building is listed. The back side will be a prefabricated, compressed straw wall (Ecococon Wall). New triple glazed windows, heat pumps and ventilation with heat recovery will be added.
Efficiency improvement
The planned renovation will bring heating demand down by a factor of more than 20 and also result in an impressive reduction in total primary energy.
