Retrofitting of a Residential District under Near Zero Energy Buildings Criteria

Abstract

With the aim of achieving a Near Zero Energy District, a series of interventions have been designed focusing on improving the sustainability of the FASA neighborhood in Valladolid, increasing its energy efficiency and reducing the CO2 emissions of its buildings. In order to achieve this objective, the REMOURBAN project will act on the envelope of its buildings, on their illumination and it will modify the thermal installations to replace the current fossil fuels by renewable sources, for both heating and domestic hot water. These actions will make Valladolid a smart city benchmark with interventions in the energy, mobility and ICT sectors.
