Improve the current renovation rate by developing a new participatory integrated design methodology

• Title: Improve the current renovation rate by developing a new participatory integrated design methodology
• Description: This use case seeks to improve the energy efficiency of the existing European building stock and to improve the current renovation rate by developing a new participatory integrated design methodology targeted to the energy retrofit of buildings and neighbourhoods, establishing energy performance as a key component of refurbishments.
• Data Domain(s): Building Products (Including Geometry), Building Devices, Building Control, Building Data, Energy, Geolocation and Weather
• Objectives:

1. Foster collaboration among stakeholders in the value chain
2. Develop a online platform that supports collaborative design and has the ability to export multiple file formats thanks to semantic web technologies
3. Guide designers in the data collection phase
4. Evaluation of different design options at both building and district level through dynamic simulations
