RE-SKIN Project

🏗️👷♀️ The 𝗿𝗲𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗶𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 on the demo building in Milan starts next week! 🏡 That's the greatest news we heard during the 5th consortium meeting held at Politecnico di Milano, which included a visit to the demo site — a community house outside of Milan city. The partners exchanged the latest developments, challenges faced, and the upcoming plans! 🎥 During the visit, REVOLVE conducted interviews with people working at Fondazione Progetto Arca, who help vulnerable people and work at this building. The sunny weather helped us get some good shots! ☀️ 💡 On the second day, different stakeholders interested in the RE-SKIN system met to discuss the #decarbonisation of the building sector, the innovative solutions of the project, with a specific focus on the demo building in Italy. 🔍 At the end of the demonstration event, Claudio Del Pero showed some of the components to the attendees, including a bio-sourced polyurethane (PUR) foam for the facade and a fan coil. 🧱 We are looking forward to seeing the new #facades and #roof installed at the community building in Milan and how it is going to improve the lives of the guests living there!

How can we retrofit energy-intensive buildings for diverse uses and climates across Europe? 🏡 ⚡ 🎥 Watch Alessandro Miglioli, CEO and Engineer at ZH spin-off, explain how the RE-SKIN project integrates ICT, sustainable materials, energy efficiency, and advanced renewable energy systems to transform buildings into modern, sustainable structures. 💡 Learn more about these innovations—find the video link in the comments! #Sustainability #EnergyEfficiency #SustainableBuidling

🏘️ 𝗕𝗲𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗰𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘀 of our demo event in Milan!   At the event on 12 December, local stakeholders and policymakers discussed how projects like RE-SKIN are tackling the 𝗘𝘂𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗻 𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗰𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗶𝘀 with practical and scalable solutions.   ⚡ The community house demonstration site is an inspiring example of how innovative retrofitting technologies, like repurposed PV modules and heat pumps, can address energy poverty while improving housing conditions.   This unique building supports 16 vulnerable residents, including tenants on addiction recovery paths, and stands as a testament to sustainable renovation in action.   📽️ Watch the video to discover the demo site and some of its sustainable features!   🔗 Learn more about our demo sites here: https://lnkd.in/eHwFyNnD   #EnergyPoverty #Sustainability #HousingCrisis #HorizonEurope Fondazione Progetto Arca | Politecnico di Milano | Claudio Del Pero | Housing Europe | REVOLVE | Fondazione Politecnico di Milano | Comune di Milano | Enel X |

Citizen-led renovation projects by energy communities are a cooperative solution to local and personal challenges 🤝 In our latest #BuildBetterLives blog, Felix Kriedemann from REScoop.eu discusses how energy communities all over Europe are increasingly offering building renovation services to their members and communities, and the reasons why they are becoming more involved in these activities. https://lnkd.in/ddbzWBG8

🏘️ On Tuesday 19 November, Fabrizio Leonforte, Associate Professor at Politecnico di Milano, presented the advancements of the RE-SKIN project since its inception at the Built4People clustering event in Belgium. This gathering brought together representatives of the 30 projects funded under the “Efficient, sustainable and inclusive energy use” part of the Horizon Europe Work Programmes for Climate, Energy and Mobility. 🤝 It was a great opportunity to exchange insights and foster collaboration for a more sustainable built environment. #BUILT4PEOPLE #NebulaB4P ECTP - European Construction and sustainable built environment Technology Platform | World Green Building Council.

Whether you own your home or rent, housing policies influence our daily lives, impacting not only where we live but also also the environment, society, and our future. Buildings consume a massive amount of resources such as energy and materials. Reducing their environmental impact is key to meeting climate and social goals. But how? 🏠 Better insulation 🌱 Better construction materials ☀️ Better heating systems 📖 Learn more in the insightful article by the European Environmental Bureau: https://lnkd.in/gF8a9ckh

✨ The Beginning of a New Milestone! ✨ I am pleased to share that I have officially started my PhD journey at the Tribology and System Dynamics Laboratory (LTDS), part of the prestigious National School of Public Works Ecole nationale des Travaux publics de l'Etat (ENTPE), located in the breathtaking city of Lyon! My research will focus on developing innovative energy flexibility indicators for smart retrofitted buildings, under the expert guidance of Professor Mohamed ⵎⵓⵃⵎⵎⴰⴷ محمد El Mankibi ⴰⵍⵎⴰⵏⴽⵉⴱⵉ المنكبي from ENTPE, Dr. Joud Al Dakheel, and Professor Nassim SEBAIBI from BUILDERS École d'ingénieurs. This work is part of the EU-funded RE-SKIN Project, which aims to revolutionize building renovation practices. The project addresses critical goals, including decarbonizing the building sector by 2050, doubling annual renovation rates by 2030, and enhancing indoor comfort. I am eager to dive into this exciting challenge, contribute to impactful research, and learn and grow through this new chapter in my academic journey! #PhDJourney #Research #EnergyEfficiency #Sustainability #SmartBuildings #Decarbonization #BuildingRenovation #Retrofit #Energy #PhD #RenewableEnergy #Lyon
