Energy renovation solutions - Making buildings’ renovation faster, deeper, affordable, smarter, service- and data-driven
Funds multi-country building-renovation projects with EU contributions of up to EUR 2 million at a 95% rate, covering either renovation business models and construction-sector capacity (Scope A) or building-performance data tools like Energy Performance Certificates (Scope B).
This LIFE call funds one of two distinct scopes, and proposals must say clearly in their introduction which one they're targeting. Scope A backs strategies that aggregate renovation demand, replicable business models, and construction-sector capacity building -- helping companies move to more industrialised, standardised renovation processes with fewer errors and delays. Scope B is about the under…
LIFE Clean Energy Transition wants projects that speed up and scale building renovation across the EU, under one of two scopes. Scope A backs demand aggregation, replicable business models and construction-sector capacity building that make renovations faster, cheaper and higher quality. Scope B backs better building-performance data and instruments, improving Energy Performance Certificates, Renovation Passports and the Smart Readiness Indicator so renovation decisions and financing rest on more reliable numbers.
