Germany and Austria were early passive house adopters (>5,000 dwellings) with Scandinavians eagerly trying to catch up. About 130 apartments in Sweden have met the passive house building standard, where each square meter of space uses a maximum 15 kWh of energy per year. Around 300 additional apartments are expected to go up in Sweden this year, and in Scandinavia 40 different projects are underway, including the single family "Fin One" in Finland and the renovation project Brogården in Alingsås.
