Deep renovation is crucial for European buildings to meet the 2050 decarbonization targets. However, numerous barriers on both the supply and demand sides hinder building renovation from scaling up effectively in both the private and public sectors.
Fortunately, several projects, including some led by Quake, have already developed innovative solutions for deep renovation as part of the EU Renovation Wave. These projects offer comprehensive people-centered approaches that involve the entire value chain. Despite this progress, a major obstacle remains: the lack of market uptake strategies to leverage the technical and non-technical solutions developed over the past five years. This challenge is critical for both policy and market perspectives and represents a missed opportunity for EU-funded projects.
To tackle this issue, the BuildUPspeed project, as a CET LIFE initiative, aims to address this gap by harnessing the power of industrialization in the building industry.
The BuildUPspeed project focuses on five key pillars.
A factory that is erected in the district itself, geared to a district level and for the time of the district retrofitting program.
An online open-source platform. The Hub brings together and demand and defines the market for deep-renovation products and concepts.
Modularity is a concept that is observed as a major beneficiary in numerous industries, but relatively new to the building deep-renovation market.
