Abstract
The objective of the paper is to describe the requirements of passive house standard based on an example of RES TTC building. The requirements were divided into main prerequisites for energy demand and specific recommendations for particular factors. The calculations and analysis have shown that in order to achieve the required energy demand, it is necessary to apply better solutions than recommended, e.g. ventilation units with higher efficiency of heat recovery. The same refers to U-values of the building elements. The use of ventilation units with recommended efficiency of 75% does not guarantee achieving of the passive standard.
