The BEEM-UP project is a Public Private Partnership collaborative project that will demonstrate the economic, social and technical feasibility of retrofitting initiatives for drastically reducing the energy consumption in existing buildings, and lay the ground for massive market uptake of such initiatives.
BEEM-UP Stands for Building Energy Efficiency for Massive market Uptake
BEEM-UP involves key expertise to implement and demonstrate innovative building and energy management approaches with the overall aim to improve energy efficiency in existing buildings and obtain better indoor comfort conditions.
The BEEM-UP project takes an integral approach to overcome these technical, social and economic barriers through three ambitious retrofitting projects in Sweden, the Netherlands and France.
The BEEM-UP is a demonstration project, where the methodology is implemented and developed in three pilot sites serving as demonstrators. To support a high replication potential and a massive market uptake, the demonstrators are spread to France, Sweden and the Netherlands.
