Imtech has secured a contract with Capital Park Group for a project to realise Poland's most energy-efficient green building.
This sustainably designed building: Eurocentrum, an office building covering 65,000 m² in the centre of Warsaw, will be the first building in Poland to receive a LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Gold certificate.
LEED, developed by the US Green Building Council, sets the standards for realising environmentally designed office buildings. The order is valued at more than 33 million euro.
According to Imtech CEO Rene van der Bruggen, Imtech has held a strong position in Poland for several years. ‘Imtech Polska was initially founded as the result of a collaborative effort with German customers who had operations in Poland. Imtech later expanded considerably in collaboration with Polish clients and investors.
In Poland, Imtech can offer a complete line of technical services, including high-tech solutions in energy technology.
As elsewhere, the demand for energy efficiency is also growing rapidly in Poland, and Imtech is providing an excellent response to this demand.
Realising all the green technical solutions for Eurocentrum – the most energy-efficient Green Building in Poland and recipient of a LEED Gold certificate – is another fine reference.’
Energy efficiency is taking on an increasingly higher priority in Poland. Imtech’s specific competencies make it possible to respond effectively to this situation; due in part to Imtech’s unique expertise in the field of energy, the company has been contracted to provide all the technical solutions for the Eurocentrum office building.
This modern building is situated in the heart of Warsaw between the busy Artura Zawiszy Square and the city’s western railway station.
A LEED BREEAM rating (the objective LEED BREEAM classification for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design developed by the U.S. Green Building Council) of approximately 70% makes this building the most energy-efficient office building in Poland.
When compared to a conventional building, the Eurocentrum Green Building is almost 50% more energy-efficient and has almost half the CO2 emissions.
