Study Results and Achieving High Ventilation Air Quality in Architecture for a Public Utility Building – Shopping Centre in Mielec, Poland

Abstract

The purpose of the current study is to utilise a novel technology that is expected to bring reductions in electrical and heat energy consumption and cut CO2 emissions in the shopping centre public utility building in Mielec. The building is equipped with systems for obtaining heat and cold from groundwater and features the energy consumption level of a passive building with the lowest primary energy ratio (PER) in Poland. This state-of-the-art, innovative, energy-efficient and environment-friendly FCH system with BMS control was subjected to numerous tests and analyses, the details of which will be presented further in this paper. The design assumptions were confirmed and all work parameters were recorded for the system under extreme conditions, including the determination of final energy (FE) and primary energy (PE).

Natural Energy Stored in Groundwater Deposits as a New Way of Obtaining Green Energy for Urban Planners, Architects and Environmentalists

“…The analysis is based on the studies performed between 2014 and 2021 at several representative buildings in Poland, such as in Warszawa Targówek [18] and Mielec Navigator [19], with a total area of FCH HVAC systems of over 90,000 m 2 . This paper discusses the results of these studies, with final energy (FE) and primary energy (PE) reductions and CO 2 emissions reduction by 50%.…”
