The historic building is increasingly experiencing summer overheating. With the rising focus on climate-neutral buildings, a comprehensive approach to enhancing the building’s climate resilience will now be adopted, prioritizing passive solutions and potentially incorporating carefully selected technical cooling measures.
In the initial phase, we assessed the building and site, then developed a set of optimisation measures to prepare the historical town hall for summer, aligning it with current standards. In the secondary phase, the effectiveness of these measures was evaluated with regards to their robustness in the face of climate change using building energy modelling and variant studies.
A step-by-step action plan was developed that will serve as a quantified knowledge base for further decision-making.
