Project description
Paving the way for the decarbonisation of energy usage in Europe’s buildings
The EU is transitioning towards an energy-efficient and decarbonised building stock by 2050. However, the uptake of renewable energy solutions for heating and cooling has been slow. Addressing this, the EU-funded RES4BUILD will decarbonise the energy consumption in buildings by developing integrated energy-based solutions adapted to the needs and requirements of users and installers. The project’s multidisciplinary consortium will improve the performance and reduce the cost of the components of the RES4BUILD solutions by integrating photovoltaic cells, solar thermal energy collectors and borehole thermal energy storage. An innovative multi-source heat pump includes a magnetocaloric (bottom cycle) and a vapour compression heat pump (top cycle). Combined with other technologies, the heat pump will deliver tailor-made solutions for the specific needs of each building
