Robin Heidel zeigt auf, wie ÖPP-Hochbauprojekte gestaltet werden müssen, damit ein energieeffizienter Betrieb sichergestellt wird. Er entwickelt dazu ein Referenzmodell mit Prozessbeschreibungen für die einzelnen Projektphasen. Anhand eines Praxisbeispiels stellt er den möglichen Nutzen des Modells dar.
