With more than 70% of the building stock built before the first energy crisis (1970’s), energy retrofitting of buildings is envisaged as the most promising strategy to reach EU’s “20-20-20” targets. However ...

Geo-clustering to deploy the potential of Energy efficient Buildings across EU (GE2O)

Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2013,

Energy efficiency in buildings will play a major role in responding to climate change and energy issues, if we are able to trigger large scale actions involving EU, all Member States and their regional and local authorities. The concept of “Geo-clusters” is highly relevant, being virtual trans-national areas where strong similarities are found (i.e. climate, culture and behaviour, construction typ ...
