    What this call funds

    This call funds projects that develop better ways to measure how renovation of buildings can reduce waste, energy use, and carbon emissions by combining circular economy strategies (like reusing and recycling materials) with life cycle assessment tools. Teams must test their new modelling approach on at least three real buildings being renovated in different European countries with different climates. The goal is to produce more accurate methods for showing that circular renovation approaches deliver genuinely lower lifetime carbon and material impact.
