Abstract

Here, we analyse final and primary energy savings and overheating risk of deep energy renovation of a Swedish multi-storey residential building of the 1970s under climate change and consider overheating control measures to reduce cooling demand and risk of overheating. The energy-efficiency measures include additional insulation to basement walls, exterior walls, and attic floor as well as improved energy-efficient windows and doors, balanced ventilation with heat recovery (VHR), lighting, household appliances as well as water taps and shower heads. The future climates are based on the representative concentration pathways scenarios. We find that implementing improved energy-efficient windows and doors, VHR and additional insulation to external walls give significant final and primary energy savings for space heating. The total operation final and primary energy use decrease averagely by 58% and 54%, respectively when all the measures are cumulatively applied under both current and future climate scenarios. Efficient household appliances and lighting as well as appropriate overheating control measures significantly reduce cooling demand and risk of overheating. The indoor air temperature and overheating risk as well as the final energy savings are influenced by the considered climate scenarios.
