Utilization
This building makes up a small part of the commercial centre (Östra) Nordstaden (East North City) that was constructed in the late 1960s. By that time Nordstaden was the largest commercial mall in Sweden.
Building concept
The building has 13,640 m² heated floor area and seven floors including the basement. The floor area is about 60% offices and 40% retail space (shops).
Nordstaden has been refurbished during the latest years and the refurbishment is still ongoing.
HVAC concept
The building is served by six air handling units with variable air volume flow rates (VAV). They all have 100 % outdoor air with air-to-air heat recovery equipment, mainly run-around loop heat exchangers. Typically the heating and cooling is also connected to this loop.

Lessons learnt | Results of the Building eQ project
- Energy saving potential in the operation of buildings 5 - 30 %
- Realisiation of these potentials with low or no investment costs
- BuildingeQ methods and tools allow quick and cost efficient detection of these potentials
- Ongoing performance evaluation is prerequisite for energy efficient operation
- Consortium suggests amendment of epBd with mandatory performance monitoring
