Amstelveen, 25 April 2024 - Altera Vastgoed (“Altera”) recently took delivery of the properties built in the 1980s in Sassenheim from BAM Wonen following eco-friendly home upgrades. Making these properties more sustainable is in line with Altera’s ambition to make its portfolio Paris Proof by 2040 at the latest.
This delivery represents the first project in the long-term partnership with BAM Wonen and comprises 31 rental units on Evert van Dijkpad and Parmentierpad in Sassenheim. Sustainability measures, including upgraded insulation and ventilation, will reduce gas consumption by 17,330 m3 per year and annual CO2 emissions by 31,000 kilograms. For residents, this will provide a combination of greater living comfort and lower energy consumption while also reducing estimated total housing costs. Tenants reported that the work went smoothly and that they felt an immediate improvement in levels of comfort.
The work consisted of fitting roof and ground insulation. The existing windows were replaced with triple glazing and the homes were fitted with a new balanced ventilation system with heat recovery (heat exchanger system).
