This case study aimed to identify the most cost-effective renovation option for an apartment building through technical and financial analysis. It included energy performance simulations, economic evaluations, and a life-cycle cost assessment.

This case study focused on how measures on material efficiency and management can help develop urban mining, to improve the energy retrofit efforts across modern cities, and to promote circular economy in a key economic area. 

The focus of this case study is on developing a fast and accurate machine learning-based approach to support retrofitting decisions at the city scale for energy savings. Using Gaussian Process models, the study analyzes over 6,000 buildings in Mullingar, Ireland, to estimate energy use intensity (EUI) quickly and effectively.

This case study focuses on how building energy retrofits, non-energy benefits (like health or comfort), and energy poverty are connected. It uses a literature review to better understand how these elements interact and influence each other. The goal is to provide useful insights for policymakers, professionals, and researchers working on energy and social issues.  

This case study presents the development of a user-friendly digital tool to estimate energy efficiency gains in private buildings through various energy-saving measures  

This case study provides a thorough examination of innovative financial schemes designed to unlock private investment in retrofitting the European residential building stock. It studies the financial solutions that help the consumer undertake the necessary investment. There is an in-depth analysis of three innovative financing schemes: On-tax and on-bill, EPC/ESCO contracts, and Green Debt.

This case study examines the technical aspects related to the integration of energy retrofit strategies, renewable energy sources, and thermal energy storage in buildings featuring a solar chimney, with a specific focus on the city of Aversa in Campania.

This Case Study presents a software tool (ERV – Energy Renovation) designed for the comprehensive planning, evaluation, and financial analysis of residential building energy renovations, with a focus on the on-bill financing scheme.

This study examines a prefabricated façade panel designed for the deep renovation of a residential building in Berlin to meet NZEB standards.
