Energy Retrofit – Lohr School and Sports Center
The comprehensive renovation of the school and sports complex in Lohr am Main implements an 80% reduction in natural gas consumption. The basis is a combination of PV-powered heat pumps, CHP, ambient heat absorbers, ice storage, and stratified thermal storage.
EA Systems Dresden assessed the plant concept, advised the planners, and simulated subsystems and their interactions. The models formed the basis of a model-based test environment for developing the control system. Intensive monitoring continually compares real measurements with the model.
Our Services
- Plausibility checks and validation of the plant concept
- Modeling of complex plant equipment
- Energy monitoring and measurement data analysis during commissioning
Our Project Results
- Optimization specifications for selecting and sizing technical plants
- Plant control specifications
- Validated test environment for control development
- Calculation basis for cost–benefit comparisons and assessment of alternatives
- Action plans for adapting the system to subsequent construction phases
