Entra ASA : Building a new Powerhouse at Brattørk
Post# of 301275
Entra has decided to start construction of a new Powerhouse at the land plot Brattørkaia 17 A in Trondheim. Powerhouse Brattørkaia will be an energy positive and environment friendly office building of approximately 18,200 sqm, of which a 2,500 sqm parking basement. The property is approximately 50 % pre-let to Skanska, Sopra Steria and one tenant who currently wants to be confidential. Construction will commence in March 2017 with a building period of two years.
Powerhouse Brattørkaia will utilise sun and sea water for heating and cooling. The building will be covered by 3,000 square meters of solar panels and thus produce around 500,000 kWh of renewable energy annually. This is more than twice as much as the building consumes for heating, cooling, ventilation and lighting and means that the building has a positive energy balance also when all the energy that goes into building processes, materials and finally demolition is included. The project is aiming for the environmental classification BREEAM Outstanding and Energy class A++.
- Entra has environmental leadership as one of its strategic pillars. Powerhouse Brattørkaia will produce surplus renewable energy enough to recharge 200 electric cars on a sunny day. Ambitious goals and good partners through the Powerhouse co-operation has enabled this innovative project, said CEO Arve Regland in a comment.
Brattørkaia is an old seafront harbour area in the centre of Trondheim, which Entra has transformed into a prime office and cultural area over the last seven years. Construction of a new campus for BI Norwegian Business School is ongoing on the neighboring land plot of Powerhouse and these two projects will complete Entra's urban development project at Brattørkaia.
