Renovation of Residential urban spaces: Towards nearly zero energy CITIES

2013 - 2018

Framework Coordinator Duration

Objective
Develop and demonstrate replicable
strategies for designing, constructing
and managing large scale district
renovation projects for achieving
nearly zero energy cities.
solutions for the holistic improvement
of the energy performance of buildings
at district level (definition of standard
indicators and new diagnosis approach,
analysis of existing energy technologies
in a systemic approach, new strategies
for urban energy planning, …)

Innovative Aspects
- Three demonstrations of residential
climate conditions and user’s habits
- A very ambitious dissemination
programme focused on public and
professional audiences
- Deployment of a rigorous
measurement and verification of energy
performance and savings plan for each
demonstration, taking into account
standard protocols as IPMVP
- A market and replication deployment
plan, in order to ensure the project
impact at business level, and a results
exploitation strategy suitable for achieve
a wide impact

This project has received funding from the European Union’s Seventh Programme for research,
technological development and demonstration under grant agreement No 314473
Impacts
The very ambitious renovation plan of
three residential districts, will involve
more than 57.000 m2, 850 dwellings and
1500 users, with a potential of energy
consumption reduction close to 60%.
