Fossil-free citiesThis webinar is organised as part of the Interreg NWE ACE-Retrofitting project
Although local governments are tackling climate change, a majority of buildings in North-West Europe are still energy-inefficient and in need of deep renovation.
If action is not taken it will lock local governments into a high carbon-footprint future. By targeting condominiums (tenements and flatted buildings), the greatest number of private owners can benefit from more energy efficient homes while creating significant financial and carbon savings (50-70%).
Speakers : Ian Turner from Energy-Cities, ACE-retrofitting project manager
