Le 17 septembre 2024, l’Office franco-allemand pour la transition énergétique (OFATE) organise, dans les locaux de l’Ambassade de France à Berlin, une conférence dédiée aux potentiels d’efficacité énergétique dans la ville.
Passive cooling involves a series of strategies to cool buildings without electricity and represents an invaluable set of tools to address the increasingly intense summer heatwaves, even in Europe.
The Remarkable Climate Neutrality Solutions Contest has brought together innovative minds across Europe, passionate about driving the transition to a sustainable, climate-neutral future. With a focus on unique, impactful, and practical solutions, the contest sought entries from individuals, entrepreneurs, SMEs, and public authorities dedicated to addressing climate challenges.
EAE’s Energy Efficiency Guide is a meta-study that summarises relevant facts and figures about the energy efficiency of Europe’s building stock, relevant legislation, technical developments and how ETICS contribute to achieving Europe’s environmental, economic and social objectives. It condenses the evidence of numerous global, European and national scientific studies and provides recommendations on what can be done to triple the number of buildings undergoing deep or staged deep renovations or new buildings to become net carbon neutral by 2050.
The main objective of this workshop and technical seminar is to present demonstrated energy efficient measures in housing associations connected to district heating networks.
LIFE SUPERHERO aims to diffuse the use of ventilated and permeable roofs (VPR) and HEROTILE-based roofs (HBR) as an effective climate adaptation and mitigation solutions based on 'passive cooling'.
ELCEN and Sage Geosystems are conducting a feasibility study for integrating geothermal energy into Bucharest's district heating, aiming to reduce pollution and costs, with initial funding from the US Department of Energy and potential EU grants.
Integrating green infrastructure with dense urban construction in the Netherlands can enhance ecosystem services and increase green areas, guiding sustainable urban planning amid growing urban populations.
Toulouse's LIFE Green Heart project aims to reduce temperatures by 3°C in the Îles du Ramier district through green infrastructure, addressing the Urban Heat Island effect exacerbated by dense urban development.
