Abstract
The local authorities in the Jelling administrative area in Denmark give priority to environmental protection and wish the area to be ``green``. One of the activities that have been instigated in this relation is the surveying of energy consumption patterns in 250 houses and buildings with the aim of investigating the feasibility of retrofitting existing buildings so that they use only the minimum of energy and make optimal use of renewable energy sources. Another aim was to inform local builders of the potentials for constructing low energy houses and instruct them on the concept of low energy, and in fact to initiate an overall information dissemination on this subject. The procedure used in the energy surveys, a general description of low energy homes, tables illustrating energy savings and financing are presented in addition to a more detailed description of the concept of a ``climatic shield`` which protects buildings from the cooling effect of the local winds and cold temperatures. Various methods of thermal insulation are explained, and building techniques, materials and energy supplies are also dealt with. It is concluded that the project has had a significant effect on the attitudes of the local inhabitants. (AB).
