Sustainability in Practice: Revitalizing "Fylkeshuset" in Stavanger
Through innovative reuse, heritage preservation, and modern energy solutions, Head Energy is contributing to a more sustainable future for public buildings in Stavanger.
In 2024, Head Energy was entrusted with the construction management of an ambitious redevelopment and extension of Fylkeshuset—the main administrative building of Rogaland County Municipality in Stavanger. Now well underway, the project showcases how sustainability principles can be applied to complex public infrastructure.
The assignment involves both new construction and major rehabilitation of the existing building—a strategy that significantly reduces the need for new materials while preserving valuable architectural and cultural features. The transformation includes converting large, outdated rooms into space-efficient modern offices. At the same time, all technical systems are being replaced with cutting-edge, energy-efficient solutions, ensuring the building meets tomorrow’s standards for climate-conscious operations.
The combination of new-build and renovation has required interdisciplinary collaboration and seamless coordination across all disciplines involved. Head Energy is working closely with the project management team from Paxon AS to ensure the various performance areas are integrated and aligned with the sustainability goals.
With a total project budget of NOK 883 million and covering around 19,000 square meters, Fylkeshuset will, upon completion, provide 600 modern office workspaces. This project stands as a strong example of how sustainability, functionality, and preservation can be combined in public sector construction.
