| Description : |
Within the framework of the modernisation and management of the real estate asset of the State and the setting up of the “Grenelle Environment” Forum, (commitment of the French government toward environment protection) the foreign affairs Minister launches energetic and cultural heritage diagnoses on diplomatic missions sites. In a first step, we draw up an inventory of the cultural heritage and energetic present state. Then, in a second part, we establish a pluriannual plan of renovation aiming at the maintenance and the conservation of the existing buildings and the reduction of energy consumptions. By this approach, the client wish to get a mid- and long-term view of the site management and to decide a coherent set of actions on the building and the HVAC equipments to actually optimise the site’s service. The study consists in 3 technical parts : - Description and qualification of the site from the point of view of its energetic and environmental performances; - Description and qualification of the site from the point of view of its general state and of its compliance with the fire, heating, lifts and asbestos regulations; - Establishment of a global and coherent program of renovation of the site. The proposed program shall show how to reach the objectives of reduction of the energetic consumptions and GHG emissions in the 10 and 40 years delays while respecting the compliance and the durability of the buildings, i.e. the maintenance and the conservation of the existing buildings. This diagnosis also lies within the “exemplary state” plan and should allow to reach the objectives of the Grenelle Environment Forum : reduction of the primary energy consumptions of 40% within 10 years and reduction of the greenhouse gases emissions of 75% by 2050. |

| Description of the Actual Services Provided | The assignment realised by IED consists in carrying out the energetic diagnosis of the buildings : heating, ventilating and air- conditioning (HVAC) systems. The present energetic performances of the outer shells of the buildings (walls, roofs, woodwork) and of the heating and air-conditioning systems are estimated. The management of the buildings and of the installations is also assessed and recommendations for their optimisation are suggested. Technically feasible solutions at the date of the study allowing the improvement of performances are sought and suggested. They should allow to satisfying the objectives of reduction of energy consumptions and GHG emissions. The recommendations made in the framework of the energetic diagnosis are confronted with the recommendations made in the framework of the building maintenance mission (realised by GIRUS). A single coherent program of rehabilitation and performance improvement work is proposed. |
