Barriers of Energy Efficiency in the Deep Renovation of the Residential Buildings

Our international Build Upon project rounds up real estate and building sectors professionals and public sector stakeholders to develop tools to decrease the carbon emissions of the building sector with the help of deep renovation concepts. In year 2016 we will organise six get-togethers in Finland and 88 all together around Europe.

The goal of the whole project and these get-togethers is to produce more information to support the writing the future renovation strategies. In addition we want to indent the construction and real estate sector to work together in order to overcome the challenges and start the revolution of deep renovation.

Every individual get-together has its own theme and the best specialists of the theme are invited. In this second workshop of year 2016 we concentrate to the residential buildings and obstacles of their energy renovations

How to join the community?

Revolution needs you! A task force that consists of our members and our partners supervises our project. If you are interested to join this project and you are willing to share your knowledge with us and plan the year 2016 together contact our project manager Sami Lankiniemi ([email protected]).
