Imtech to provide Poland's most energy-efficient Green Building with technical solutions
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Growth target for Eastern Europe set at 500 million euro by 2015
Gouda - Imtech (technical services provider in Europe) announces a contract with
Capital Park Group for a project to realise Poland's most energy-efficient Green
Building: Eurocentrum, an office building covering 65,000 m² in the centre of
Warsaw. This sustainably designed building will be the first building in Poland
to receive a LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Gold
certificate. LEED, developed by the U.S. 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 René 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.'
The most energy-efficient Green Building in Poland
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.
Green technology
The Eurocentrum Green Building will provide 65,000 m² of modern office space
with a high level of comfort (more than 50 m³ of fresh air per person per hour
per 10 m²). It will have 18 floors, three of which will be dedicated to an
underground parking facility designed for 112 cars. (More than 50 cars can also
be accommodated in front of the building.) The building will include three large
atriums covering a total area of 1500 m² and tall enough to accommodate mature
trees. These will also be visible from outside and serve as a landmark. The
building will be brimming with green technical solutions including decentralised
energy generation, thermal energy storage, optimum ventilation, heat recovery of
more than 90%, specific air and climate solutions that provide an optimum
distribution of heat and energy, energy-efficient building automation, the use
of rainwater, an efficient water distribution system, energy-efficient lighting,
movement sensors, a special heating system in the façade, sustainable ICT
infrastructure, etc. Use will also be made of a sustainable construction
process, special measures will be taken to prevent air pollution during
construction, and the majority of the materials used can be recycled.
Imtech: the most energy-efficient technical services provider in Poland
Imtech distinguishes itself on the Polish market for technical services by means
of its green range of services. The demand for green, energy-efficient solutions
is mushrooming. In addition to projects involving renovating existing complexes
and making them more sustainable, the number of new-build projects requiring
green solutions is increasing. Imtech is involved in both segments. In addition
to countless new-build projects, Imtech has recently been involved in the
sustainable renovation of the technological updating of the Katowice railway
station.
Continued growth in Eastern Europe with a growth target of approx. 500 million
euro by 2015
Imtech has set a strategic target of 8 billion euro in revenue by 2015 ((2010
revenue: 4.5 billion euro). Part of this growth will be generated in Eastern
Europe. In addition to rapid growth in Poland, Imtech also expects continuing
growth in Hungary, Russia and Romania. The company's growth target for Eastern
Europe - approx. 500 million euro by 2015 - will be reached by a combination of
continuing organic growth and acquisitions.
