France Air is rethinking its Silent School dual-flow power plant intended for the renovation of educational establishments

Energy recovery, a challenge for the future

The building sector represents 43% of French annual energy consumption. And it generates 23% of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions*. It is therefore urgent to decarbonize buildings and their equipment. While contributing to the reduction of energy bills and the comfort of occupants. Decree No. 2019-771 published in 2019, also called tertiary renovation decree, details the terms of application for reducing final energy consumption for buildings for tertiary use with action obligations. It commits all tertiary sector players to energy efficiency by imposing a gradual reduction in energy consumption to achieve a target of -60% by 2050 compared to 2010.

Ensuring good air quality for students and teachers

France Air is the French specialist in energy recovery in the tertiary sector with the widest range on the market. France Air offers solutions guaranteeing a healthier and more comfortable environment all year round. While reducing energy consumption.

With the new QAI and Edurenov decrees, indoor ventilation of schools has become a real issue. With this in mind, France Air has redesigned Silent School®, its ventilation solution intended for renovation in small tertiary sectors and educational establishments to ensure good air quality for students and teachers.
