Abstract

This project investigates whether a wind turbine can be integrated into a building. Here, "integrated" means the turbine is built into or mounted as part of the building’s structure. To explore this idea, the project uses a hotel in the suburbs of Aalborg as an example, selected because local wind conditions are suitable for wind power. The goal is to assess the practical feasibility of such a solution in this setting.

Dette projekt undersøger, om en vindmølle kan integreres i en bygning. Her betyder "integreres", at møllen indbygges eller monteres som en del af bygningens konstruktion. For at udforske idéen anvendes et hotel i Aalborgs forstæder som eksempel, valgt på grund af egnede lokale vindforhold. Målet er at vurdere den praktiske gennemførlighed af en sådan løsning i denne sammenhæng.
