Energy Consumption

We at GEA have specialized in developing products with optimum energy efficiency. This topic is becoming increasingly more important, especially under the aspect that, in future, the now mandatory European Building Energy Certificate will readily provide valuable conclusions on the energy quality of a building structure.

We apply dynamic energy simulations to determine the energy influences that act on enclosed building space.

In addition, we are also able to effectively simulate building automation and utilities systems, as well as technical plant systems, and to study energy conservation on a time-discrete basis. The following are taken into account: - The heat-storage effect of the body of the building
- Climate data that depend on site conditions, including analysis of extreme values
- Interactions within the thermal building behaviour
- User behaviour

This simulation allows us to conduct optimization of investment and operational costs, and of the amortisation time. The role of the Building Energy Certificate will in the future play an increasingly important role for optimized design.
