Assistance Publique-Hopitaux de Paris

AP-HP is the University Hospital of “Ile de France” and the largest university hospital in Europe. It employs 90,000 professionals including 20,000 physicians and 70,000 staff members in the public hospital on 37 hospitals grouped into 12 hospital groups (GH). The extensive and diversified real estate spans 3.5 million square meters of built area allocated of 52 hospital sites. AP - HP offers a capacity of 23,000 beds including 350 intensive care beds (ICU), and has served more than 7 million patients in 2011.

Scope of the energy-efficient demonstration case for STREAMER, focusing on the design stage: l district in Paris with 1,600 beds in medicine, surgery, acute care and long-term care. They are located on two sites covering a total area of 450,000 m². The project focuses on the Gaston Cordier building with 26,000 m² floor area and all emergency and surgery facilities.

Targeted real impacts through this STREAMER demonstration case: AP-HP’s annual energy bill is EUR 80 million, and therefore, energy-efficiency receives much attention at all management levels. The APHP is in the process of optimizing the design, operation and management of the hospital at the district level within the high-density urban area of Paris. Energy-efficiency goes along with efficient logistic and waste management, the use of alternative energy sources (e.g. biomass) and the realisation of new energy infrastructures (e.g. power plants).
