Summary

Energy renovations are not just about saving on utility bills or cutting CO2-emissions. They can also have a windfall of other effects for our social, economic and personal lives, the so-called multiple benefits. The webinar will focus on these benefits, which are too often overlooked when considering a renovation project. The Horizon2020 project EmBuild is developing a novel approach to help assessing the multiple benefits of public buildings renovation. The knowledge-based method eases the weighting and evaluation of benefits for public authorities. For the first time, municipalities can use this comprehensive approach to implement wider benefits in their decision-making processes and the necessary reporting and evaluation schemes for deep renovation measures.
