Gouda, the Netherlands -
Royal Imtech N.V. (IM-AE, technical services provider in and
outside Europe) announces that it has received new orders worth 37
million euro for the high-tech sustainable technical infrastructure
in both the multi-purpose project 'Elbarkaden' in Hamburg,
including the new head office of Greenpeace, and the new 'Main Gate
Porta' office development in the center of Frankfurt / Main. The
building in Hamburg received a Gold pre-certification in accordance
with German Sustainable Building Council (DGNB) standards. The
office development in Frankfurt undercuts the German Energy Savings
Regulation (EnEV) by 25 percent.
René van der Bruggen, CEO Imtech: 'Imtech is the
market leader in technical energy efficiency solutions in Germany
and Eastern Europe. The majority of all ongoing orders include
energy-efficiency and/or energy management components. After huge
sustainable projects like the green revitalization of the head
office of the Deutsche Bank in Frankfurt or the sustainable head
office project of Spiegel Publishers in Hamburg, these two projects
are other good examples of our technical sustainable capabilities.
The sustainable challenges in these projects are on the edge of
what is technical possible.'
Two innovative energy
efficiency examples
The multidisciplinary project 'Elbarkaden' in the center of the
HafenCity development in Hamburg has a surface of over 23.500 m².
Beside home of the new Greenpeace head office, the sustainable
building offers space for others offices, retail, culture and
gastronomy, as well as apartments. The new 'Main Gate Porta' office
building consists of a 19-story high-rise (height 70 meter) and a
7-storey perimeter block. The new sustainable building with an area
of about 20,000 m² is the first of the new Main Gate business
district development in the eastern part of the old town of
Frankfurt / Main. Both developments are innovative energy
efficiency examples.
Innovative energy efficiency
solutions
The certification system of the German Sustainable Building Council
(DGNB) covers over 50 criteria from areas like ecology, economy and
technology and processes. The DGNB Gold certificate is awarded if
all these aspects are fulfilled to an outstanding standard. In the
'Elbarkaden' development in Hamburg Imtech is commissioned to
realize the entire energy and technology concept based on Imtech's
own Active Building® concept. The goal of this energy concept is to
emit just 34 grams of carbon dioxide per generated kilowatt hour.
Therefore, the primary energy requirements will lie significantly
below the level of 100 kWh per square meter per year. To make this
possible a large number of innovations are implemented, such as:
high energy heat recovery, waste heat usage, cold recovery, thermal
storage, special pumping technology, use of renewable energy
(photovoltaics, wind power systems on the roof, geothermal systems,
solar power and biomass) and use of low-emission materials. Smart
building automation makes an integrated energy approach possible.
Water is used as a resource by use of rain water, water-saving
equipment and fittings and more. Over the course of the year, the
property will generate around one third surplus energy, which can
be fed into the grid.
In the 'Main Gate Porta' office development in
Frankfurt Imtech is responsible for the complete sustainable
technical infrastructure, including hidden heating, ventilation and
air conditioning solutions in high-tech ceilings with
energy-efficient integrated heating and cooling systems. Beside
this, Imtech is taking care of all electrical solutions, all water
and LED lighting solutions, and the complete security and fire
safety. An innovative building management system manages all the
mechanical processes, substantially increasing the building's
energy efficiency and resulting in an exemplary low carbon
footprint. Besides the complex technology infrastructure individual
temperature control can be adjusted in each office and all windows
can be opened allowing fresh air to come in. This creates an AAA
class working environment.
