EmBuild - Empower public authorities to establish a long-term strategy
for
mobilizing
investment in the energy efficient renovation of the building stock
- is a project financed under the Horizon2020 Programme of the European Union and explores the modalities of investment in energy efficiency
in
public
buildings with a special emphasis on the local level. Its main objective was to empower public authorities at local, regional and national
level
to
formulate renovation strategies for the building sector that foster deep renovation and facilitate the acceleration of the renovation
rate.

The project involved 10 partners: two have regional or international mandate (NALAS and BPIE), and 8 national partners from 6 countries: EnEffect (Bulgaria), REGEA (Croatia), GIZ, eza!, Technical University of Munich (Germany), AE3R (Romania), University of Belgrade (Serbia) and KSSENA (Slovenia).
EmBuild supported public authorities in Southeast European countries to prepare a long-term strategy for mobilising investment in the energy efficient renovation of the building stock.
EmBuild worked directly with public authorities in towns and regions in Romania, Bulgaria, Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia and Germany. The project generated new tools, better processes and enabled higher capacity in local governments to design ambitious but realistic renovation strategies.
EmBuild communicated the experience of the focus municipalities throughout Europe and helped regional energy agencies to support more and more municipalities.
EmBuild promoted a bottom-up approach, where the national renovation strategy should be the sum of local commitments. The project consortium worked closely with national actors to contribute to national processes: local governments, energy experts, business, local government associations, financing agents and other stakeholders that may influence the implementation of deep renovation of public buildings at local level.
EmBuild's focus municipalities produced solid renovation strategies for their building stock. More municipalities and towns across the whole region followed the example and produced their own strategies. The renovation of the building stocks contributes to the achievement of multiple goals: lower energy bills, increased comfort, healthier living and working spaces, improved air quality and new local jobs.
The success of energy efficiency measures in public buildings depends on the strategy:
EmBuild prepared, with inputs from project partners, stakeholders and, most of all, local governments, guidance with
practical information that will
navigate you through the steps and milestones of preparing a renovation strategy.
