A large-scale sustainable project in Differdange<\/h2>\n

The development of the Plateau du Funiculaire led to the creation of a district heating network serving the new neighbourhood. For environmental reasons, heat is produced using wood pellets.<\/p>\n

Exemplary energy performance<\/h2>\n

To meet stringent performance targets, all buildings share a high-performance thermal envelope and high-efficiency dual-flow ventilation with heat recovery. Particular care has been given to airtightness detailing to ensure proper operation of the ventilation systems.
The entire project is DGNB Gold certified, the highest rating under the German scheme. The homes are rated energy class A, and the shopping centre is BREEAM-certified (UK standard).<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n

An ambitious environmental approach<\/h2>\n

Arboria follows an ambitious environmental strategy. Urban planning prioritises residents\u2019 tranquillity: car traffic is limited, and numerous pedestrian routes link the district to the city centre and the park. The Parc de la Chiers stretches along the full length of the neighbourhood, creating a true green haven.<\/p>\n

To reach these high performance levels, several measures were implemented:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • \n

    District heating powered by wood pellets<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    Excellent insulation and green roofs for the residences<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    Photovoltaic panels on the shopping centre roof<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    Recovery of waste heat from the supermarket cold rooms<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Renewable energy can be found at every level!<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n

    An attractive and convivial living environment<\/h2>\n

    The sales phase was extremely successful, with all apartments and town houses selling very quickly.
    The Arboria district is thus playing an active role in transforming the former Plateau du Funiculaire, at the heart of a city undergoing renewal.
    More than a residential neighbourhood, Arboria offers a true living environment supported by a wide range of amenities: easy access (train, bus, car), a shopping centre in the heart of the district, and a central location within the city. Betic worked on all the special technical installations for the district.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n
