A new European tool proposes integrating energy efficiency, social inclusion, and urban regeneration into building renovation, offering practical guidance to accelerate more accessible, resilient, and replicable upgrades.
El Centro Tecnológico de la Construcción (CTCON) analiza el enfoque que la Comisión Europea adopta al redefinir la descarbonización del entorno construido incorporando todo el ciclo de vida de los edificios y priorizando la rehabilitación como eje estratégico.
Intervention on existing buildings in Paris that combines reuse, urban energy systems, and hybrid ventilation, with a primary energy consumption of 55.3 kWhep/m²·year.
This webinar examines how Europe can make better use of its existing buildings to address housing needs while reducing resource use and emissions, highlighting practical initiatives and investment approaches that support affordable, sustainable, and socially responsive building reuse.
The new European Buildings Directive promises to accelerate energy renovation, but its success lies not in technology, but in the rules. This analysis unpacks how data, property rights, and financing can become either enablers or obstacles to the transition.
A new integrated framework proposes transforming the monitoring of the European Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) into a strategic tool, connecting data, objectives, and evaluation in order to accelerate the decarbonisation of the building stock.
Montenegro is preparing new rules that will require zero‑emission buildings and energy‑consumption reductions in the public sector, which are expected to be adopted by the end of 2027.
Discover how renovation passports are emerging as a key Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) tool to help building professionals and owners plan staged deep renovations, aligning individual projects with Europe’s zero emission goals.
