Affordable and digital solutions to Build the next generatiON of smart EU buildings
The 2021 Energy Performance of Buildings Directive recast highlights buildings’ central role in the energy transition towards an integrated and renewable energy-based EU energy system. Smarter buildings will support the digitalisation and decarbonisation transition to the benefit of building occupants, owners and the energy system. Improving energy performance and reducing energy demands are even more relevant in the context of the REPowerEU Plan to rapidly reduce dependence on Russian fossil fuels and accelerate the green transition. BuildON seeks to develop a highly replicable, generic solution to deliver intelligent building services, facilitate the integration of heterogeneous systems and technologies, and help Build the next generatiON of Smart buildings. BuildON aims to develop and demonstrate a Smart Transformer Toolbox (STT) at TRL8 to plan and achieve improved energy performance applicable to the broadest range of building typologies and smart readiness levels via a comprehensive demonstration campaign involving five representative real-life pilots. One of the pilot is kindergarten building no 21 in Gdynia. The project consortium gathers 20 partners from 9 European countries, and it is coordinated by the CARTIF Technology center from Spain. The projectisco-funded by Horizon Europe.
