An EU Horizon 2020 research program aiming to better building & living
Residential Retrofit assessment platform and demonstrations for near zero energy and CO2 emissions with optimum coST, health, comfort and environmental quality.
ReCO2ST applies an easy 3-step approach to building renovations, resulting in major savings and heightened standards of living, at a near-zero energy coefficient.
ReCO2ST applies an easy 3-step approach to building renovations, resulting in major savings and heightened standards of living, at a near-zero energy coefficient. First, our interactive Refurbishment Assessment Tool (RAT) provides the customer with clearly defined, user-driven refurbishment scenarios. The installation is then planned and optimized through an Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) tool, and finally, the selected refurbishment package of innovative technologies is deployed as a customizable Retrofit-Kit. The Retrofit-Kit features a compendium of cost efficient and modular technologies, including: Vacuum Insulation, Modular Photovoltaics, Smart Windows for Heating and Cooling, an Intelligent Energy Management System, fully integrated Wireless Sensor Network, Cool Materials and Nature Based Solutions.
To realize the project’s approach, the following strategic and general objectives (SO) have been identified relevant to overall project success. The project objectives will be verified against the KPIs as presented by the Consortium.
