Workshop Energy Efficient Buildings PPP: long term roadmap, synergies and potential in addressing societal challenges, 13-04-2011

During the European Union Sustainable Energy week (11-15 April 2011) a workshop was organised about the Energy-efficient Buildings Public Private Partnership in research (EeB PPP). This PPP aims at promoting green technologies and the development of energy efficient systems and materials in new and renovated buildings to radically reduce their energy consumption and CO2 emissions.
The objective of the workshop was to show how stakeholders from several industrial sectors such as construction, ICT, energy, chemistry and materials and the broader stakeholder community including public authorities, owners and users representatives target the long term scenario in which new and existing buildings will be using and producing energy within districts and their neighbourhood.
Concrete examples were presented jointly with short presentations highlighting the challenges that the different actors foresee, including non technological barriers such as standards and business models, as key contribution to the 20/20/20 objectives.
