Energiesprong UK is leading towards the retrofitting of non-traditional houses in the UK, and specifically to deploy heat pumps. The 1 million non-traditional homes in the UK are characterised by poor energy performance which already represents a big challenges to reach the energy efficiency targets and integrate heat pumps.
GIFT is an innovative project that aims to decarbonise the energy mix of European islands. European islands have to abide by the law of their countries that push toward a greener energy mix to comply with the European and international agreements. GIFT is willing to develop innovative systems to allow islands to integrate vast amount of renewables.
Public buildings are an important meeting place between the government’s policy and the citizens. It’s an interface where sustainability approaches become tangible. Realising a sustainable public building stock has many more advantages then just lowering the energy and maintenance bills. The public buildings are increasingly becoming multi-functional, are adapting to changing needs of public services and guarantee a healthy indoor climate. SURE2050 wants to make the public building stock of local and central governments future-proof. It is an important step in the direction of becoming climate neutral.
The implementation of smart meters and thus of smart buildings has become more and more important in the policy agenda. This type of technology allows the end-users to make informed decisions about their own energy consumption, and it also helps utilities and building managers to make best decision on energy demand and when to scale services.
