A new video documenting the REHVA Brussels Summit 2025 is now available, showcasing discussions on HVAC in Zero Emission Buildings and the role of Project ENERGATE in accelerating Europe’s Renovation Wave. The summit, held at the European Economic and Social Committee (EESC), brought together policymakers, technical experts, and industry leaders to explore solutions for healthy, energy-efficient, and affordable buildings.
SESSION III of the Summit highlighted how ENERGATE’s innovations align with market needs:
Data is the gateway to renovation financing: harmonised and validated data allows investors to assess risk and trust projected savings.
Standardisation is essential: ENERGATE’s structured methodologies and interoperable models tackle the sector’s biggest bottlenecks.
Digital platforms accelerate deal-making: connecting owners, technology providers, and financiers enhances transparency and reduces transaction costs.
Non-energy benefits matter: comfort, indoor environmental quality (IEQ), and behavioural factors are crucial for future valuation frameworks.
Stakeholders demand simplification: SMEs, municipalities, and households need user-friendly tools to prepare bankable projects.
ENERGATE’s strategic contribution was confirmed: providing a practical and scalable framework for renovation project preparation, a digital marketplace facilitating cross-sector collaboration, and a data-driven foundation for investment decisions in the Renovation Wave.
The video captures these key insights along with panel discussions, expert interventions, and behind-the-scenes moments, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in sustainable building innovations and energy-efficient renovations.
