Energy-intensive building

Construction of the first all-purpose positive energy tower in the world. It consists of 67 housing units and 1233 m2 of photovoltaic panels arranged on the roof and on the facades.
With a cost not exceeding 1200 € / m2, it is an innovative but affordable concept for the world.
The Elithis Danube Tower is located at the entrance of the ZAC (joint developement zone) Danube, the advanced figure of this new emblematic district of the new Strasbourg, and the exemplary reconquest of its docks.

Building users opinion

With an energy consumption 168 times cheaper than an average household in France, the promise made to the occupants is kept. Thus, the various testimonies are laudatory.

If you had to do it again?

The main construction principles and innovations selected for this project are the good ones. The proof is that after a year of operation the results are satisfying. Therefore, apart from the few settings at the margin, we can only be satisfied, without questioning the ambitious choices that make this project a world first.

Smart Building

    Incentive and intuitive, the tool has created a real emulation between tenants.

    At the social heart of the tower, conversations often revolve around the performances of each other. The most virtuous Dulociate competition is "unofficially" open!

Urban environment

  • 600,00 m2
  • 100,00 %
  • The Elithis Danube Tower is located at the entrance of the ZAC Danube, the advanced figure of this new emblematic district of the new Strasbourg, and the exemplary reconquest of its docks.

    The building is bounded by the Dusuzeau Basin and its quay to the north and Edmond Michelet Street to the west, which extends to the north by the Winston Churchill bridge.

    The main access is in the West, Rue Edmond Michelet and its Tramway station, or by the few steps that lead to the Quai du Bassin Dusuzeau.

    A secondary access is located in the east, along the "urban ramp west of the ZAC".

    Near the center and perfectly served by public transport, the Elithis Danube Tower in the heart of the Eco District Danube allows its inhabitants to approach the mobility from a new angle.

    The Elithis Danube Tower profits from excellent connections: it is located in the immediate vicinity of a bus stop and the Winston Churchill tram station (lines C and E) and is included in a very dense network of cycle paths. is also served by three major roads.

    Walking is THE universal mode of transport! The ZAC Danube has an almost flat altimetry conducive to pedestrian movement and ballads along the Quays.

    In order to ensure good walking conditions, the implementation of the Elithis Danube Tower was considered in perfect coherence and connection with the public space. For the transport of young children, La Tour provides families with a local pushchair located on the ground floor of the building.

    The Strasbourg urban area has the largest tramway network in France, with 71.8 km of commercial length, 7 meshed lines including a cross-border line to Kehl (6 tram lines and 1 BHNS line) and 90 stations.

    The site is advantageously served in particular by lines C and E of the tramway. The Winston Churchill stop is located at the foot of the Elithis Danube Tower.

Indoor Air quality

    We spend about 80% of the time in closed places, especially in housing.

    The air we breathe there may be of lower quality than the outside air, sometimes very clearly because the outside air is added to pollutants from the indoor air.

    Floor and wall coverings represent most of the surfaces of a room. Their composition and their implementation largely contribute to the quality of the habitat and more particularly the indoor air.

    In order to ensure healthy indoor air, all interior linings have been chosen to limit the emission of pollutants into the air and are all labeled "indoor air emissions" .

    The Indoor Air Emissions label is a simple and readable indicator of the level of volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions, known as new pollutants from interior coating products (partitions, panels, carpets, wallpapers, paintings ...).

    The emission level is indicated on a scale from A + (low emissions) to C (high emissions)

    All floor coverings in dwellings are labeled B minimum.

    Each unit is equipped with a high-performance ventilation system that guarantees fresh air supply at the level of the joinery in the living rooms and rooms adapted to the use. The "polluted" air is mechanically aspirated by extracting mouths in the wet rooms (washrooms, toilets, kitchen). Their dimensioning has been optimized to ensure sufficient air quality, low noise and easy maintenance, while reducing associated energy consumption.
