PIONEERING SUSTAINABLE BUILDING RENOVATION
Amidst a backdrop of innovation, the BIO4EEB research project celebrated its 1st anniversary with the 3rd General Assembly convened in Prague on January 11th and 12th, 2024. This milestone gathering reaffirmed the project’s commitment to revolutionizing the construction industry, with a keen focus on bio-based insulation materials.
ABUD’s Research Associate Amina Dacić and Consultant Ábel Magyari, highlighted the significance of reuniting project partners to jointly review current standing and objectives.
Besides presenting the latest advancements in the development of bio-based insulation materials and learning of the status of the 3 virtual and 5 real demo sites, the meeting played a pivotal role in revitalizing partnerships after a year’s break.
The Assembly provided for the first Advisory Board meeting to take place, organised by EBC, the European organisation representing micro, small and medium-sized companies of the construction sector; the German coordinator 3L Architects and the French-Italian innovation experts of R2M.
A collaborative KPIs Qualification Workshop was organised by our colleagues, with both the project partners and the Advisory Board members. This exercise allowed to gather valuable information on the potential benefits of the BIO4EEB solutions, serving for future finetuning of the core KPIs stemming from the demo-cases.
The project also includes a significant Hungarian dimension, focusing on a virtual demo-case in Hungary, where bio-based insulation solutions are tested for their applicability and affordability in renovating the prevalent “Kádár-cube” type single family houses, which make up a substantial portion of the national residential building stock.
