Projects
Some of our most recent EU projects are listed below. Most of the projects have their own websites, where the results of the project are described and documented. The reports can be downloaded from the respective sites, mentioned below. If you have an interest in further information about the projects do not hesitate to contact Henrik Sørensen, who can guide you to the respective project managers and international partners on the.
| Reframe |
The Development of the new generation of window frames with significantly lower heat loss than traditional designs.
Esbensen is the coordinator of the project. The project's website is: www.eu-reframe.net

Hospitals
|
Demonstration of the significant energy savings and indoor improvements in 6 hospital buildings in the EU. Esbensen is coordinator of the project. The project's website is: www.eu-hospitals.net |
| Reshyvent |
Development of new principles and components for hybrid ventilation of dwellings in Europe. Esbensen has responsibility for analysis and deployment of renewable energy systems. |
| Europrosper |
Turnover of the EU Directive on labeling of buildings to concrete principles for use in individual countries. |
| Enthuse |
Project about dissemination of knowledge targeting local authorities in 5 EU countries on increased use of renewable energy in local projects. The project's website is:: www.enthuse.info/ |
| Windat |
Further development of window information system for optimization of windows for energy-saving solutions and the optimization of daylight conditions. |
| Ruros |
Analysis, simulations and recommendations on optimization of outdoor climate in urban environments in Europe. The "Praghs Boulevard"-project is singled out as a Danish case study and Esbensen is furthermore responsible for computer simulation of wind on a selected number of European squares. |
| Solar Cities |
Co-operative project involving a number of European cities with a view to making greater use of solar energy in energy supply. |
| Renewable Energy Center - UK |
Development and Demonstration of integrated energy concept for the new Renewable Energy-center in the UK with focus on the use of combined photovoltaic and solar thermal systems. Esbensen is responsible for planning and implementing a project about measurements. |
| Energy Comfort 2000 |
A chosen targeted project of the European Union Thermie program including 7 selected commercial buildings that was designed by use of the principles of integrated energy design. This resulted in substantial energy savings. Esbensen is the technical coordinator. |
| Museums |
Development and Demonstration Project on energy and indoor environment factors for European museums and exhibition buildings. |
