The building sector is the largest energy consumer in Europe, representing 40% of the total EU consumption and 36% of CO2 emissions in the EU, according to EC statistical data. By improving the energy efficiency of buildings, the total EU energy consumption could be reduced by 5-6% and lower CO2 emissions by about 5%.
S3 Partnership on Sustainable Buildings has identified three main reference themes for interregional collaboration:
1) Eco-construction, bioclimatism and insulation of buildings.
2) Renewable energy integration in buildings.
3) Systems of maximum energy efficiency in buildings and cities.
The next steps of the partnership comprise the creation of working groups for each reference theme, the mapping of the capacities, resources available and relevant actors in the participating regions, and the establishment of synergies and interregional collaborations for the implementation of concrete pilot projects and actions.
The Comunitat Valenciana, through the Instituto Valenciano de la Edificación (Valencian Institute of Building) of the Regional Ministry of Housing, Public Works and Vertebration of the Territory is one of the regions present in this partnership that will have its regional mirror in the framework of the CaLab innovation initiative.
