TESTIMONy TO THE QUALITy OF BASF TECHNOLOGIES<br />
IN THERMAL INSULATION<br />
BASF and its partners in practice offer proven<br />
and easy-to-use solutions to increase the energy<br />
efficiency of all kinds of buildings. The high performance<br />
and energy efficiency and the environmental<br />
advantages of the technologies of BASF and its<br />
partners in the construction industry are demonstrated<br />
by a wide variety of low-energy houses.<br />

ZErO HEATING COST HOUSE<br />
IN LUDWIGSHAFEN, GErMANY<br />
ENErGY CONSUMpTION rEDUCED TO<br />
TECHNICAL-ECONOMIC OpTIMUM<br />
In view of rising energy prices, a zero heating cost house can<br />
represent the optimum investment. LUWOGE, BASF’s housing<br />
company, has developed a concept that reduces energy consumption<br />
to an economic optimum by energy modernisation measures.<br />
A thermal insulation composite system with <strong>Neopor</strong> ® insulating<br />
boards is used so that the building incurs the minimum heating<br />
costs. The energy for power, hot water and heating the house is<br />
produced by using regenerative energy sources. The cost savings<br />
are used for refinancing, so the costs for heating and producing<br />
hot water are quite separate from the operating costs.<br />
“BÂTIMENT GÉNÉrATION E” IN<br />

COMpLETE rENOVATION CLEArLY rEDUCES<br />
ENErGY CONSUMpTION<br />
BASF’s know-how of building energy-efficiently with innovative<br />
materials is proving its worth in France. After a complete renovation,<br />
the “Bâtiment Génération E”, a villa in Fontenay-sous-Bois,<br />
uses less than 50 kW/h instead of 400 kW/h per square metre. This<br />
reduction of the energy consumption was achieved largely with<br />
<strong>Neopor</strong> ® insulating materials used to insulate walls, roof, floors and<br />
ceilings. Styrodur ® C was used for the perimeter insulation.
