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.
