Improved indoor environmental quality

The purpose of this booklet is to provide designers and planners with retrofit guidelines for concepts and technologies regarding energy efficiency and good indoor environment quality in school buildings - from simple, but significant energy reduction and indoor environment improvements up to the final target: Zero emission schools. The objective of this work is to develop an overview on the available building and system retrofit technology systems for energy efficient school buildings including their impact on the energy performance and indoor environment quality and their economic feasibility. The intended audience for the report are designers and planners of school buildings. The idea is that municipalities all over Europe can use the guidelines and find useful technologies for their specific school buildings. In addition, the work constitutes background knowledge for further work in the "School of the Future" project, especially the extension of the information tool.
