Nordic-Baltic NZEBs:Exchange of experience

This report compares national requirements on Nearly Zero En-ergy buildings in the Nordic andBaltic regions. Additionally, it gives examples of typical buildings (residential, offices, and oth-ers) that comply with the national requirements and the building elements and installationstypically found in these buildings. Fi-nally, it compares calculated energy performance ofselected example buildings in the different schemes and climates to in-vestigate whichrequirements are stricter and how they comply with the EU recommendation. This report compares national requirements on Nearly Zero Energy buildings in the Nordic and Baltic regions. Additionally, it gives examples of typical buildings (residential, offices, and others) that comply with the national requirements and the building elements and installationstypically found in these buildings. Finally, it compares calculated energy performance of selected example buildings in the different schemes and climates to investigate which requirements are stricter and how they comply with the EU recommendation.The project has been carried out as a collaboration between Aalborg University, Department of the Built Environment in Denmark and Tallinn University of Technology, School of Engineering in Estonia with contributions from Kaunas University of Technology, Lithuaniaand Riga Technical University, Latvia.The work in this project has been supported by the Nordic Energy Research under the joint Baltic-Nordic Energy Research programme as “Knowledge sharing on NZEB buildings in the Nordic-Baltic region” (project, no. 96752).
