GREENHOUSE SOLNA STRAND - SIGNIFICANT CO₂ SAVINGS WITH REUSE!
How do you modernize an older indoor climate system to save energy, digitalize, and optimize space utilization without a high CO₂ footprint? Humlegården Fastigheter chose reuse and upgraded 980 chilled beams with Lindinvent’s DCV-B package, saving 298 tons of CO₂ and 34 tons of material compared to replacing them with new chilled beams, equivalent to 410 round-trip flights between Arlanda and New York.
Modern offices with a focus on reuse
In Greenhouse Solna Strand, sustainability and smart technology are combined to reduce the carbon footprint. Lighting fixtures, chilled beams, and ceiling tiles have been preserved and upgraded, contributing to a total savings of over 400 tons of CO₂. By reusing 11,900 square meters of ceiling tiles, waste has been minimized, and an additional 31 tons of CO₂ have been saved.
With demand-controlled lighting and indoor climate regulation, we create long-term solutions that provide flexibility, reduce the environmental impact, and lower energy costs.
Smarter control reduces energy consumption
Lindinvent developed DCV-B, a solution to digitalize and demand-control existing CAV chilled beams instead of replacing them with new VAV chilled beams, saving both costs and CO₂ emissions. Previously, temperature adjustments had to be made manually, but now all control is automated based on occupancy and actual needs.
By activating presence-controlled comfort and economy modes, energy savings of 10–15% are achieved immediately. Reduced airflow during absence further decreases both electricity and heating consumption. Sensors also provide insights into space utilization, enabling optimized area usage and improved occupancy management.
Digital monitoring with LINDINSPECT®
All control is managed via LINDINSPECT®, Lindinvent’s web-based digital twin. Here, property owners can monitor the indoor climate, analyze energy consumption, and optimize space usage. Integrated sensors provide valuable data on occupancy rates, room utilization, and meeting room bookings, unlocking new possibilities for efficient property management.
DCV-B – The product that made it possible
We offer a complete solution that controls energy efficiently and provides facility management with all the data they need to optimize buildings in a sustainable way. This is essential if we are to make the Swedish property sector climate neutral.
