Abstract | Green Lighthouse is built by a consortium consisting of Hellerup Byg, Christensen & Co. Arkitekter and COWI, which has developed the architecture and energy concept and has constructed this new climate landmark.
The house has been finished within less than a year and before the UN Climate Conference in Copenhagen starts in December. Green Lighthouse is placed at the Faculty of Science and will contain service functions for students, meeting facilities and a faculty club for researchers. The energy concept is explained in a small movie and contains solar thermal and PV collectors, solar cooling, seasonal heat storage, a heat pump and a connection to the district heating net, as well as optimised use of daylight, LED lighting and natural ventilation.
