Minergie-P
Minergie-P is an independent building energy standard in Switzerland that is geared towards low energy consumption . It is derived from following the path of the 2000 watt society for the building industry. The building should be assessed integrally, i.e. from the building envelope to the building services to the location of the sanitary rooms. The procedure for this is laid down in the SIA 380/1: 2009 standard. Existing construction methods are to be retained, whereby the various components are strongly assessed on the thermal behavior, statically and dynamically. Carrier's like Minergiestandard the association Minergie .
The Minergie-P standard roughly corresponds to that of the passive house in Germany. However, in contrast to the passive house assessment, it varies in its requirements for different uses.
Certification
Buildings awarded according to Minergie-P are recognized by a certification body. In addition to the first certification body in Switzerland, the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts (HSLU) , which is now still responsible for Central Switzerland, ten additional certification bodies with regional responsibility had often been established across cantons by 2016. In addition to the pure calculation check, there is also technical support for the project authors (architects, engineers).
The following criteria must be met for certification:
- Specific heat output requirement (the energy requirement per m² heated room must not exceed a certain value), see also energy index
- Heating requirement (the heating energy requirement may be a maximum of 20% of the value required by law) (as of 2008)
- Weighted key energy figure (different building groups are taken into account, e.g. administrative buildings, single-family houses, etc.)
- Airtightness of the building envelope (the building must be airtight, which can be proven with a measurement)
- Household appliances (only economical household appliances, e.g. washing machines , tumblers , etc. of the energetically best classification A, A + and A ++ are permitted).
In principle, almost every building can be built according to the Minergie-P standard; the largest building, which was certified in 2011, is Walter Schmid's environmental arena .
