Introduction

The EU's Renovation Wave strategy is crucial for achieving a climate-neutral society by 2050. Focused on doubling the current annual renovation rate by 2030, the strategy faces a challenge in seismic-prone regions covering 50% of European territory. These areas require a comprehensive renovation approach that improves energy efficiency and seismic resilience.

Opportunities for Integration

The revision of the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive offers an opportunity to integrate seismic safety measures with energy efficiency. This ensures a holistic approach and maximizes benefits in seismic-prone regions.

Importance of Sustainable Renovation

Sustainable renovation is imperative for achieving the EU's climate and energy goals. It requires national plans that go beyond energy efficiency to address a building's resilience to natural hazards. The path to a carbon-neutral EU building stock necessitates comprehensive renovation considering:

  1. Energy factors
  2. Seismic factors
  3. Environmental factors

Building Renovation Passport

The adoption of sustainable building renovations, as outlined in the Building Renovation Passport, is crucial for realizing Zero Emission Buildings. It also advances national plans for carbon reduction, offering multifaceted benefits across social, economic, and environmental dimensions.

Project Objectives

The overall objective of GreenRenoV8 is to deepen the understanding and practical implementation through pilots of renovation plans and passports for reducing carbon emissions through sustainable building renovation.

Key Steps and Measures

While the new EPBD takes crucial steps, including:

  • Defining Zero Emission Buildings in the renovation context
  • Disclosing life-cycle GWP
  • Capping embodied emissions

Further measures are needed to encompass the entire lifecycle carbon impact of buildings.

Investment Mobilization

GreenRenoV8 aims to mobilize investments for a highly energy-efficient and decarbonized building stock by 2050. The focus is on informed decision-making for renovation plans and passports, considering:

  • Seismic vulnerability
  • Energy efficiency
  • Embodied carbon
  • Financial instruments
