How to improve the energy efficiency of a single-family home

A 200m2 single-family home in Madrid (1998) with an E energy rating can achieve a significant improvement with a change of boiler and façade insulation and false ceiling. These improvements translate into savings of up to €800/year and an optimisation of the home to a C energy rating.

From normal home to optimised home

In addition to achieving significant savings, these improvements optimise sustainability. They do so by significantly reducing the pollutant emissions of the home compared to its initial energy consumption:

Before
24.340 KWh/year
Electricity

After

Improvements to be implemented

The actions to be carried out are very simple and quick to perform:

Façade insulation
1.430 €
Covering the home with state-of-the-art materials to keep it warm in winter and maintain a comfortable temperature in summer. No building work or permits are required.
False ceiling insulation
2.310 €
The installation of a protective layer does not require permits or major building works and contributes to the efficiency of the building, helps sustainability and increases the property's value.
Installation of Air Conditioning
1.477 €
Newer appliances make less noise and consume less energy, which contributes to lower electricity bills and reduced CO₂ emissions.

Tangible results, great benefits

The interventions, as well as the EPC procedures, have a total cost of €4,620.70.

Short-term benefits

  • Energy efficiency for greater energy performance.

  • Immediate thermal comfort in the home.

  • Revaluation of the home.

Notable reductions

  • Energy consumption that reduces the use of fossil fuels.

  • Reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.

  • Less ambient noise, improvement in insulation and A/C system.

  • Save in your energy bills.

Sustainable and economic benefits

Although the savings in such interventions are quickly noticed, the improvement in sustainability and emissions is seen in the medium to long term.
