OFFICE BUILDING
Get in touch and we'll help you cut energy costs!
Our specialists optimize your office building
Do you want to save energy, improve the indoor climate and reduce the climate footprint of your office building? Our advisers have extensive experience in this area, and we are here to help you.
We specialize in optimizing the energy efficiency of your property. Our experience shows that even small adjustments in office buildings can significantly reduce energy consumption. It is often possible to achieve energy savings of 25-60% by implementing profitable measures, and over 80% by extensive rehabilitation. We have also found that it is often possible to upgrade most buildings to energy class A or reduce energy consumption by at least 30% according to the EU taxonomy. A reduction of 30% in energy consumption in existing buildings is the basis for green loans. By carrying out a survey, we can quickly determine the possibilities that exist in your specific building. During a regular inspection, we often spot opportunities for adjustments right away, so you can start saving energy immediately.

We offer a range of services for office buildings, from simple mapping to full energy management and possible remodeling of the facility.
For office buildings, we offer, among other things:
Energy management
Energy management forms the basis for optimal operation of your buildings, and contributes to reduced power and energy consumption. This means that your building has reduced greenhouse gas emissions and reduced costs, which increases your competitiveness. Energy management is the foundation for optimizing energy consumption in your building.
Here we work closely with operations and owners to optimize the operation of your building. When energy management is established, it becomes part of the company's management systems where energy is a factor that is reported and followed up on the same lines as other KPIs.
Energy management can be combined with sustainability reporting. Together with owners, we create standardized reports with both energy and sustainability data. The reports will be available based on the reporting routines the customer wants.
Energy mapping
By carrying out an Energy Mapping, you get a good overview of where you can save energy in your building.
The mapping is carried out by carrying out an inspection of the building together with operations. We start the inspection by conducting a meeting with operations to gain a good understanding of the building, before we conduct a review of all technical rooms based on representative areas of the building. Based on this, we prepare a report that shows possible measures on the building, and the profitability of carrying out the measures. We also carry out an uncertainty analysis of the investment, so that it is easy to assess the consequences of different scenarios. Very often we also discover errors or deficiencies that can be rectified during the inspection, in many cases we are therefore able to reduce some of the energy consumption already after the inspection.
Energy labeling and energy assessment of technical facilities
We can energy label your building. From 1 July 2010, all non-residential buildings over 50 square meters (BRA) must be energy-labeled when renting and selling (and new buildings). For large commercial buildings (1,000 m2 total BRA) the requirement that a valid certificate must be available regardless of sales and letting also applies.
The energy certificate is valid for 10 years. If changes and improvements are made to the building that could affect the energy label, the labeling must be carried out again, so that the energy certificate represents the building as it actually is.
We also carry out condition assessments of technical facilities in accordance with supervisor from NVE.
BREEAM IN-USE
BREEAM In-Use (BIU) is a management and certification tool developed by the Building Research Establishment (BRE) in England for building owners and managers. It can be used to map opportunities in the building for reducing operating costs, energy consumption and environmental burdens, as well as helping to identify measures to increase the well-being factor and environment in existing commercial buildings and homes.
We have personnel with many years of experience within BIU who can both assist building owners and managers in certifying buildings, both by virtue of consultation and project coordinator in the certification process. We can also offer BIU auditors for auditing certification and issuing certificates.
Greenhouse gas accounting and sustainability reporting
We carry out greenhouse gas accounting of new buildings and existing buildings. We develop solutions for standardization of greenhouse gas purity at portfolio level. SustEvo receives building data from the BIM model or from FDV documentation and creates the greenhouse gas account. We are concerned with standardization and orderly reporting, therefore we implement systematic work processes so that the customer can easily solve annual reports in a standardized way for all properties in the portfolio.
We collect sustainability data (water, waste, transport) and generate standardized reports at building and portfolio level. We do this entirely digitally based on the data we receive from the building owner. We can also assist with following up sustainability data continuously so that improvement opportunities are discovered, documented and implemented along the way.
3P guarantee
We start the work with a review of the building, then we carry out a thorough energy survey which ends in a report detailing the energy saving potential and proposals for energy measures.
After the survey has been carried out and the measures documented, we assist as project managers and representatives in the procurement and implementation phase. We guarantee that the savings and energy production will be as planned. As the only adviser, we guarantee that the result will be as we present. We link our fee in the implementation phase to documented results. This concept has been developed together with Enova SF and is called 3P-Guarantee. If the result is not as agreed, our fee is reduced.
