The clustering event is an important opportunity to focus on the scientific researches that have led to major technological innovations, as Plug & Play, high performance and energy saving solutions, new tools and strategies to encourage large scale deep renovation and major transformation of existing buildings and promote new energy efficient design in the EU. For the full success of this initiative, Universities, Industries and Public Bodies that have participated as coordinators or partners in Innovative Actions funded by European Research projects (completed or in progress) are warmly invited to share and discuss the outcomes of the researches on the design and prototyping of innovative elements in the building sector. These outcomes are intended to be representative of new components and materials, new design processes, new industrial methods for manufacture and assembly building and infrastructural components, new design strategies.
They should be related to:
• reduction of environmental impact;
• control of energy consumption;
• renewable energy systems and smart grids;
• business model and exploitation;
• circular economy.
