Residential buildings account for 27% of the final energy use in the European Union. In cold climates, space heating represents the largest proportion of the energy demand in residential buildings. By implementing energy efficiency measures (EEMs) in existing buildings, energy use can be significantly reduced. The Energy Performance of Buildings Directive states that renovations of buildings offer an opportunity to improve energy efficiency. Renovations that include measures implemented with the specific purpose of reducing energy use are referred to as energy renovations. In addition to improving energy efficiency, an energy renovation can also improve the indoor environment. Sweden, like many other European countries, faces the challenge of renovating an ageing building stock with poor energy performance. Improving energy efficiency and performing energy renovations in a cost-effective manner is central, and optimization approaches are often used to identify suitable EEMs and energy renovation approaches. New buildings usually feature better energy performance compared to older buildings, and one approach for reducing energy use in the building sector could be to demolish old buildings with poor thermal performance and build new buildings with better thermal performance. The aim of this thesis is to evaluate energy renovations of multi-family buildings with regard to space heating demand, life cycle costs, indoor environment and primary energy use. The choice between energy renovation of a multi-family building and the demolition and construction of a new one is also investigated with regard to life cycle costs (LCCs). A Swedish multi-family building in which energy renovation has been carried out is used as a case study. The building was originally constructed in 1961 and has a lightweight concrete construction. The renovation included improving the thermal performance of the building envelope and replacing the exhaust air ventilation system with a mechanical supply and exhaust air ventilation system with heat recovery. The methods used in the studies include dynamic whole building energy simulation, life cycle cost analysis and optimizations, and a questionnaire on indoor environment perception. Extensive field measurements have been performed in the building prior to and after renovation to provide input data and to validate numerical predictions. In addition to the studied building, the analysis of the choice between energy renovation and the demolition and construction of a new building includes three other building construction types, representing common Swedish building types from the 1940s, 1950s and 1970s. The analysis shows that the energy renovation led to a 44% reduction in space heating demand and an improved indoor environment. The indoor temperature was higher after the renovation and the perception of the indoor temperature, air quality and noise in the building improved. The EEMs implemented as part of the energy renovation have a slightly higher LCC than the optimal combinations of EEMs identified in the LCC optimization. It is not cost-optimal to implement any EEMs in the building if the lowest possible LCC is the objective function. Attic insulation has a low cost of implementation but has limited potential in the studied building with its relatively good thermal properties. Insulation of the façade is an expensive measure, but has a great potential to reduce heat demand because of the large façade area. Façade insulation is thus required to achieve significant energy savings. Heat recovery in the ventilation system is cost-effective with an energy saving target above 40% in the studied building. The primary energy factors in the Swedish Building Code favor ground source heat pumps as a heat supply system in the studied building. The LCC of renovation is lower compared to demolishing and constructing a new building. A large proportion of the LCC of demolition and new construction relates to the demolition of the existing building. In a building with a high internal volume to floor area ratio, it is not always possible to renovate to the same energy performance level as when constructing a new building. A more ambitious renovation approach is also needed compared to a building with a smaller volume to floor area ratio. Nära 27 % av den totala energianvändningen i den Europeiska Unionen sker i bostäder. I länder med kallt klimat används den största delen till uppvärmning. Genom att implementera energieffektiviseringsåtgärder i befintliga byggnaden kan energiprestandan signifikant förbättras. Europeiska Unionens direktiv om byggnaders energiprestanda framhåller att ett tillfälle att förbättra byggnaders energieffektivitet finns då byggnader ska renoveras. Byggnadsrenoveringar som innehåller åtgärder som implementeras med det primära syftet att minska energianvändningen kallas ofta energirenoveringar. Utöver energieffektivisering kan energirenoveringar ofta förbättra inomhusmiljön i byggnaden. Som många andra Europeiska länder står Sverige inför utmaningen att renovera ett åldrande byggnadsbestånd med låg energiprestanda. Kostnadseffektivitet är centralt vid energirenoveringar och energieffektivisering och optimeringsansatser är vanliga för att identifiera vilka energieffektiviseringsåtgärder som bör implementeras. Nya byggnader har som regel bättre energiprestanda jämfört med äldre byggnader, och en ansats till ett minska energianvändningen i byggnadssektorn överlag är således att riva äldre byggnader med låg energiprestanda och konstruera nya byggnader med bättre energiprestanda. Syftet med denna avhandling är att utvärdera energirenoveringar av flerfamiljshus avseende effekterna på uppvärmningsbehov, livscykelkostnader, inomhusmiljö och primärenergianvändning. Valet mellan energirenovering kontra att riva och bygga en ny byggnad analyseras också utifrån ett livscykelkostnadsperspektiv. För att studera detta har en svensk flerfamiljsbyggnad som genomgått energirenovering studerats. Byggnaden konstruerades 1961 och har en lättbetongstomme. När byggnaden renoverades förbättrades prestandan hos byggnadens klimatskal och frånluftsventilationssystemet byttes ut mot ett balanserat mekanisk ventilationssystem med värmeåtervinning. Metoderna som använts i studierna i denna avhandling är dynamisk byggandssimulering, beräkning och optimering av livscykelkostnader, samt en enkätstudie om hur de boende uppfattar sin inomhusmiljö. Omfattande mätningar har utförts i byggnaden och har använts som indata och för att validera resultaten. Utöver den studerade byggnaden har tre andra byggnadstyper inkluderats i analysen av valet mellan energirenovering och att riva och konstruera en ny byggnads. Dessa byggnadstyper representerar vanliga svenska byggnadstyper från 1940-, 1950- och 1970-talet. Analyserna visar att den renovering som genomfördes i byggnaden ledde till en minskning av uppvärmningsbehovet med 44 % och en förbättring av inomhusmiljön. Inomhustemperaturen var högre efter renoveringen, och de boende uppfattade temperaturförhållanden, luftkvalitet och bullersituationen som bättre efter renoveringen. De energieffektiviserande åtgärder som implementerades vid renoveringen gav en något högre livscykelkostnad än de åtgärder som identifierades som optimala genom livscykelkostnadsoptimering. Det är inte kostnadseffektivt att implementera några energieffektiviseringsåtgärder som del av renoveringen om den lägsta livscykelkostnaden är målsättningen. Vindsisolering är en förhållandevis billigt åtgärd att genomföra, men har begränsad potential i den studerade byggnaden vars vind redan har relativt god termisk prestanda. Fasadisolering kräver en större investering, men har större potential att minska energianvändning på grund av den stora fasadytan. Detta innebär att det är nödvändigt att isolera fasaden för att uppnå hög energibesparing. Värmeåtervinning i ventilationssystemet är kostnadsoptimalt om ett energisbesparingsmål på mer än 40 % ställs på energirenoveringen. Primärenergifaktorerna i den svenska byggnadskoden gynnar bergvärmepump som energitillförselsystem i de studerade byggnaden. Kostnaden för att energirenovera är lägre än att riva och bygga en ny byggnad. En stor andel av kostnaderna vid rivning och nybyggnation är kopplad till rivning och bortforsling av rivningsmassa. I byggnadstyper med stor inre volym i förhållande till uppvärmd golvyta är det inte alltid möjlig att energirenovera till en energiprestanda som är lika god som en ny byggnad. Det krävs också en mer ambitiös renovering för att uppnå samma energiprestanda som en byggnad med mindre inre volym i förhållande till uppvärmd golvyta.

Many businesses around the world use technology as a means to set-up, run and improve their commercial performance but not all countries have sufficient access to technology. In fact the ’digital divide' between rich and poor countries is one of the major international challenges facing our society. Technology Business Incubation describes a concept whereby technological support and services are offered to start-up companies in the fields of engineering, science and technology to help them further their own research and develop viable businesses. Aimed at developed and developing countries this concept could provide a solution in bridging the knowledge gap. Written by Rustam Lalkaka, a well-known expert in the field, the toolkit provides invaluable information for carrying out feasibility studies; preparing business plans; choosing a location; finding sponsors; selecting managers and tenants; and monitoring a technology business incubator. Annexes contain checklists and report pro formas to help prepare relevant documents based on local needs
