Abstract
New buildings in Sweden are among the most energy efficient in the wo;ld. The Swedish Building Code have been successful in this aspect. Unfortunately, some codes have increased the electricity demand, for instance the demand for heat recovery of exhaust air (1), that in some cases is a de facto push for heat pumps.
In new buildings, electricity has turned up as a big or even major part of supplied energy. A trend that will not make the decision for settling the nuclear power easier. As a result of the NUTEK program for ÖteknikupphandlingË (procurement) new de facto standards for efficient lighting, ventilation, white goods etc. have emerged among property owners involved.
