The project H2020 INFINITE shares a first look into the design of three demo cases aimed at achieving the nearly-zero energy building (nZEB) target through retrofitting.

The designs take into account the unique requirements of residents and the specific characteristics of the buildings. The focus is on prefabricated wooden-based envelope elements with integrated passive and active technologies.

The demo cases, located in Italy, Slovenia and France, are a great opportunity to test new technologies and innovative retrofit approaches  to achieve energy efficiency and sustainability. In particular, the Italian demo case involves the comparison of two twin buildings, one renovated using INFINITE prefabricated technologies and the other using traditional methods. The renovation tackles aspects such as thermal insulation, fresh air distribution, high-performance windows with smart glazing, and integration of renewable energy systems.
