Gladsheim
Christer Fors is the Head of Sustainability at Gladsheim, a real estate company focused on increasing property value, improving cash flow, and securing long-term green financing through energy optimization. Gladsheim works with a sustainability strategy that includes energy audits to identify problems and improvement opportunities, operational optimization to address issues such as leaks and ventilation problems, and long-term measures to improve performance and reduce the carbon footprint.
With the help of BIM Energy, Christer Fors can simulate the property’s performance and carbon footprint, providing accurate and reliable calculations for energy optimization. This tool helps identify the most profitable options and qualify the property for green financing.
An example of this is the Klubben 5 project, where Gladsheim reduced energy consumption by 20% by installing a new heat pump and replacing windows. The property went from energy class E to C and qualified for green financing.
BIM Energy offers several advantages, including reliable documentation of the property’s status, the ability to simulate various scenarios to find the most effective solutions, and easy sharing of calculations and results with stakeholders. Gladsheim has also received competent and responsive support from the BIM Energy team, which has improved their work with energy optimization.
