Abstract
This article takes a look at the Swiss 'Minergie-P' building standard that is now becoming more popular. This more demanding version of the popular 'Minergie' standard is, according to the author, the building energy standard of the future. The importance of an intelligent overall concept is stressed. The two standards are briefly compared and the developments in the 'Minergie-P' and the German 'Passive House' standards are reviewed. Figures on the demands placed on such low energy-consumption buildings are presented and discussed. The main features of the standard - compact form, use of renewable energy sources, avoidance of thermal bridges and heat recovery - are noted.
