The article presents the design of four plus energy neighbourhood demonstration projects located in different climate zones in Europe. The demo projects are a part of the Horizon 2020 project ‘syn.ikia’, which aims to enable the development of sustainable plus energy neighbourhoods in different climates and contexts. In this article, we describe th...
One of the major challenges in the energy transition of the built environment is how to integrate energy-producing neighbourhoods into the existing energy infrastructure. The aim is to avoid the peak load of local renewable energy by consuming it at district level as much as possible. The energy transition puts an increasing burden on the local ene...
As the AIVC was created in 1979, the 40th anniversary of the AIVC was celebrated in October 2019 at the 40th AIVC conference in Ghent. In the context of this celebration, it was decided to publish 2 overview publications: An AIVC technote, which focuses on the overall history of the AIVC and those involved in the organisation (TN 69: 40 years to bu...
The building airtightness is essential to achieve a high energy performance. In most countries however, it is not mandatory to measure the airtightness. In the Netherlands it is common practice to just take several samples in a housing project. These samples do not give a good indication for all the buildings in a project. It is therefore important...
In order to drive forward the energy transition, construction companies and other suppliers of deep retrofitting solutions have started to give guarantees on the energy performance of very energy efficient houses. With these initiatives, a need has arisen for methods that can assess per household the actual energy performance during the use phase....
Traditionally ventilation systems in the Netherlands are installed in new or retrofitted buildings by an installation fitter under the responsibility of a contractor. In some cases but certainly not all cases, it is checked by a consultant if the ventilation system performs according to the design. Studies in the Netherlands show that ventilation s...
There is growing awareness that indoor exposure to particulate matter with diameter ≤ 2.5μm (PM2.5) is associated with an increased risk of adverse health effects. Cooking is a key indoor source of PM2.5 and an activity conducted daily in most homes. Population scale models can predict occupant exposures to PM2.5, but these predictions are sensitiv...
In dit document delen we de resultaten verkregen uit monitoring en enquête-data met betrekking tot 18 Nul op
de Meter woningen in Tilburg. De verkregen data zijn in opdracht van Energiesprong / Stroomversnelling door
RIGO en TNO geanalyseerd met ondersteuning van Van Beek. Uit de resultaten kan iedereen die bezig is met Nul
op de Meter, lessen trek...
Fijnstof met een deeltjesgrootte tot en met 2,5 μm (PM2,5) veroorzaakt met afstand de grootste
gezondheidslast in vergelijking met andere binnenmilieufactoren. TNO toont aan dat pieken aan
fijnstofconcentratie rond het koken in huis verantwoordelijk zijn voor circa 30% van de totale
blootstelling aan fijnstof, inclusief de blootstelling die in het...
Laboratory tests with heating olive oil in kitchens suggest that the current building regulation in the Netherlands for kitchen exhaust is inadequate to directly address cooking fumes. Due to building traditions, for motor less cooker hoods often only 50% of the available capacity of the mechanical ventilation system is extracted via the hood. In t...
In dit document delen we de monitoringsresultaten
van 55 woningen die naar Nul op de Meter zijn
gerenoveerd in Heerhugowaard. Rigo onderzocht de
resultaten van de door BAM en woningcorporatie
Woonwaard georganiseerde bewonersinterviews
en TNO analyseerde de meetgegevens over
Bouwer: BAM
Woningcorporatie: Woonwaard
Locatie: Heerhugowaard

HEADING Cooking emissions have long been seen as an odour problem. However recent studies showed that Particulate Matter (PM) is the main health risk of indoor air and cooking can be a major source. A small field study within 9 Dutch dwellings indicates that depending on the conditions cooking can have a relatively large effect on the indoor exposu...
Bouwers die kiezen voor ambities als Nul op de Meter
of energieleverend, staan voor een aantal uitdagingen.
Zowel op sociaal, economisch en technisch gebied is
er werk aan de winkel. Er is al gepionierd en daar
kunnen we van leren. Daarom delen we met plezier
de lessen die we hebben getrokken uit het monitoren
van een aantal Nul op de Meter en ener...

Within the present context of the Dutch Sustainable Building Practice it is hard for the different involved building design disciplines to give a good answer to sustainability. Especially this is the case for the application solar energy either in passive or active form. As traditional methods did not work out adequately a new approach within the b...
In this paper insight is given in the potentials for energy efficiency and renewable energy sources, specifically when applied to the built environment in the Netherlands. To this end, an analysis is presented of the building stock development from now to 2050 and building concepts and scenarios for a mid-century energy-neutral built environment in...
Normally the roof is the part of building which gets minimal attention to use for integration with the comfort system of the building. This is striking, as the roof is an important possible building component for containing sustainable energy systems. The sustainable energy possible options are often only considered in a final stage of the design p...
Integration of sustainable energy systems in the conceptual stages of building design is too complex. The communication between architect and contributing building services consultants is difficult. A model of design support has been extended, Methodical Design. In 2000, the Royal Institute of Netherlands Architects, BNA, De Dutch Society for Build...
