Deep retrofits with PHPP (English & German)

We recommend this workshop to anyone who wants to know how PHPP can help you with planning and verification of deep retrofits. We will present PHPP‘s numerous features and capabilities for application to the building stock - before as well as after energy retrofit. We will also focus on the specifics of EnerPHit verification according to component quality or heating/ cooling demand. You will learn how the EnerPHit classes Plus or Premium can be achieved by complementing energy efficiency with renewable energy generation.
