Affordable and Adaptable Public Buildings through Energy Efficient Retrofitting (A2PBEER)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2013, Date de fin: 31 août 2017,
Buildings consume about 40% of total final energy in Europe, and those built before 1980 represent 95% of this energy consumption. The low renovation rate of building stock (1% per year) means that boosting energy efficient buildings’ retrofitting is the only way to reach EU’s “20-20-20” targets. The higher impact will be achieved through interventions in non-residential buildings, as their energy ...
