Sustainable renovation of museum buildings

Refurbishment of museums
Aims
The main aim of this joint project is to produce guidelines for the sustainable refurbishment of museums. The scientific monitoring of upcoming refurbishments of museum buildings and the scientific follow-up of already refurbished museums in Germany are intended to prove that sustainable planning enables energy savings while at the same time guaranteeing functional requirements. With this research concept, the project makes a contribution to the preservation of the domestic cultural landscape and to the acceptance of sustainable and energy-efficient building concepts in public buildings, especially in museum buildings, as part of the funding measures for the ''Energetic improvement of the building fabric (EnSan)'' of the EnoB ("Energy-optimized building") funding priority.

With the joint project "Sustainable renovation of museum buildings", the integration of innovative technologies in public and historical buildings can be demonstrated in an exemplary manner and scientifically evaluated. The integral concept for increasing energy efficiency using renewable energies is to be developed and presented to the public.
The formation of a research network with other experienced institutes serves to exchange and pool information and findings in order to jointly advance the further development of holistic and innovative refurbishment concepts for museum buildings.
The basis for this is a comprehensive analysis of existing buildings, which is compiled by the project partners. Further implementation will be scientifically supported by the individual institutes during the planning and implementation phase and checked during the operating phase by means of final monitoring.
