Statsbygg intends to build what could become
the country’s most climate friendly building.
The new building at Campus Evenstad at
Hedmark University College aims to achieve
zero greenhouse gas emissions through the
building’s lifetime. This will be achieved by
taking into account materials, construction,
transportation, operation, and replacement.
- Climate change is our biggest environmental
challenge and the construction industry must
be part of the solution. We are showing how
through our work on a building that has a low
greenhouse gas footprint
, says Statsbygg’s
CEO, Harald V. Nikolaisen.
The administrative and teaching building
at Campus Evenstad, Hedmark University
College is Statsbygg’s contribution to ZEB.
It will be the first zero emission building
built to the ZEB-COM level. The project has
developed a number of innovative solutions,
including a new construction system using
solid wood and a combined heat and power
plant based on gasification of wood chips.
The building will be completed in the autumn,
2016.
The building is built, designed, and
constructed with Ø.M. Fjeld as the design-
build contractor, Ola Roald Arkitektur as
architect, Asplan Viak and Høyer Finseth
as consultant engineers, and Massivlust as
solid wood supplier. Civitas and ZEB have
contributed with greenhouse gas analyses and
expert advice regarding the ZEB-COM target.
ZEB-COM is defined as a building where
emissions from the construction phase (C =
construction), energy use in the operational
phase (O = operation), and the production
of building materials (M = materials) are
compensated for over the building’s lifetime
by local renewable energy production. The
production of renewable energy covers the
building’s demand for electricity and thermal
energy, and it is also exported to other
buildings/ users as a substitute for electricity
and heat that comes from sources with
higher greenhouse gas emissions. The ZEB
centre has defined the criteria and rules for
calculation for buildings that aim to achieve
ZEB-COM.
Materials and construction phase
The greenhouse gas emissions for the
use of materials in the building and the
technical installations have been estimated,
and measures to reduce these emissions
have been looked into. The calculations are
based on
