Short description of the pilot project
This building is iconic and exemplary in a lot of aspects, it is a showcase for the public and for Gresivaudan because it is a high-performance building on energy efficiency and environmental plans and because that the headquarters of the Community of Municipalities of Gresivaudan.
This is a building office inducing some challenge to achieve a good balance between building and devices use and a control of electricity demand and energy savings. All technical data described in various technical documents prove that this is indeed the case.

Process and planning quality
Minergie ® certification with a goal achieved in energy consumption of 40 kWh / m².a (4 for regulatory purposes is 30 kwhep/m².a  for heating and cooling).

Implementation of service package gresivaudan_crolles
Operation REXOL (Feedback Experience Delivered Operations) AGEDEN proposed and accepted by the Director General of Services:
– Verification of the match between the DCE and the DOE
– See what is actually implemented (on some important points, action set, to do with the client and project management)
– Opinion on certain equipment or materials and technical data,
– And later, user awareness, writing an easy to use guide, etc..
– Proposal for possible improvements through a logbook that we made in-house,
– Communication on the project chosen via a plug detailed site on technical and economic aspects as well as on the website MountEE, and with communities through Rhône Alpes Energy Environment (RAEE) and our network as well as with all European partners (Sweden, Italy, Rhône Alpes, Catalan Pyrenees, Austria) written materials and in various meetings with partners.
– Calculation / evaluation of overall costs, etc..
– Awareness / training of users: examples of advice
