ARISE revolutionized the recognition of sustainable energy and BIM skills in the construction sector by developing an innovative, blockchain-based digital platform. The project successfully incentivized professionals to upskill through engaging micro-learning modules and a unique skills-currency reward system known as CERTcoin. As a dynamic resource for workers looking to reskill today, the project provides ongoing access to its on-demand digital learning portal and transparent skills registry, allowing experts to easily acquire, record, and showcase their qualifications to future employers.

The project represented the first phase of the BUILD UP Skills initiative in Denmark. The first objective was to gather the key national stakeholders from the energy, education & training and building sectors. Together they formed a National Qualification Platform. The platform mapped the existing workforce and qualification programs, identified future skills needs and analysed which gaps and barriers must be overcome in order to train the workforce and reach the 2020 EU energy targets. Results were bundled in a National Status Quo report. The platform then formulated a National Roadmap of measures to overcome skills gaps and barriers, which was endorsed by key stakeholders.

Towards an Open, Universal and Comprehensive Building Energy Performance Certification.

OpenBEP4EU aims to deliver an open-source, universal software implementation of the ISO 52000 standards family, namely the EU Kernel EPC Engine, to facilitate simultaneous and coordinated adoption of an innovative EPC calculation approach among all the Member States. 

This initiative aims to make building performance data easily accessible to various stakeholders like financial institutions, energy service providers, and building owners, fostering the development of financial products supporting sustainable renovation projects. 

Start date: September 2024 - End date: March 2027
