Building complex #4: 104th and 125th Primary Schools and 16th High School of Athens

As part of the Athens_Wave project, energy audits and techno-economic studies were conducted for the school complex housing:

• the 104^th and 125^th Primary Schools and
• the 16^th Junior High School of Athens.

This building complex is located between the streets of Larisis 47 – Panormou – Karystou – Maiandropouleos 42, Municipality of Athens. It consists of one building housing the 104^th and 125^th Primary Schools, and a second building housing the 16^th High School of Athens. 

The construction year of the primary school building is 1978, while the other building was constructed between 1979 and 1983. The structures collectively cover a total surface area of 4.334,27 m².

Both buildings were studied for energy upgrades set to transform the complex into a more sustainable and cost-efficient facility, benefiting both the environment and the community.

The preliminary results, pending final alignment with the business plan, showcase the following expected improvements:

• Energy consumption reduction: 86,06%
• Annual primary energy savings: 345.334,02 kWh (equivalent to €26.425,10 saved per year)
• Reduction in CO₂ emissions: 96.632,33 kg annually
• Operational cost reduction: from €29.780,80 to just €3.355,70 per year
• Staff training: recommended for optimal use of energy-efficient systems
