Last week we had the opportunity to interview Dietmar Lenz and Rainer Siegele who are involved in testing the Module 5 “Energy  maintenance” of the Service package “sustainable:building in the municipality” in the Region of Vorarlberg (Austria)

The module 5 aims to control and optimize the energy consumtion and the cleaning process – during the planing phase, during the buildings works and by the use of the building.

They answer to our questions:


Dietmar Lenz, from Umweltverband Vorarlberg
“What was your experience by testing the module 5 “Energy and Maintenance?”

“Could you see any saves of the energy consumption thanks to the Module 5?”

Rainer Siegele, Mayor of Mäder, Pilot building
“What is your practical experience?”
