WHAT IS REZBUILD PROJECT
The REZBUILD project grows with the main aim of defining a collaborative refurbishment ecosystem focused on the existing residential building stock. Nowadays, the Near Zero Energy Building (NZEB) renovation methodologies are required as one of the key enablers supported by Horizon 2020 Framework Programme in order to promote business research and innovation through energy-efficient buildings.
This project is awarded by the European Commission through a H2020 programme Grant of € 6,996,128.25 and a total budget of € 9,038,208.75. REZBUILD started in October 2017 and will run for 4 years.

WHAT DOES REZBUILD PROJECT DO
REZBUILD will address these challenges by widening the construction sector with the integration of innovation technologies in order to pave the way towards an annual renovation rate of 2,5% instead of the current rates lower than 1%.
The technologies will be merged in a common decision making platform related to an innovative concept of refurbishment plan. The methodology interconnects on one hand, advanced refurbishment technologies and existing ones based on a decision tree strategy. On the other hand, it broadcasts all stakeholders involved in the housing renovation process from designers, refurbishment to private consumer and public / private owners.

OBJECTIVES
The main objective of the REZBUILD project is to develop one refurbishment ecosystem based on the integration of cost-effective technologies, business models and life cycle interaction for deep NZEB renovation to diverse residential renovation typologies and interconnecting both, building renovation stages and stakeholders
This ecosystem will ensure the fulfilment of three KPIs:
ENERGY REDUCTION
A deep renovation rate: at least 60% of primary energy reduction as a result of the application of a decision tree strategy created from the combination of united principles of the modern sustainable architecture and NZEB design concepts
TIME SAVING
A reduced installation time: at least a 30% of time saving in comparison with a traditional refurbishment work
RAPID PAYBACK
A rapid payback period: maximum 12 years of the best retrofitting technology package installed in the residential building

A NEW PLATFORM BASED ON SUSTAINABILITY,
ADVANCED TECHNOLOGIES AND SOCIAL INNOVATION
REZBUILD will base its refurbishment ecosystem on the integration of cost-effective technologies, business models and life cycle interaction to different residential renovation typologies and interconnecting both, building renovation stages and stakeholders.
This innovation will establish a multi-collaborative framework within a refurbishment methodology managed by an Agile Project Management (APM) tool capable of interconnecting in real-time the key steps of a tailored retrofitting plan among all actors involved within the building renovation value chain.
This platform will communicate with all the participants in the housing renovation process from designers, refurbishment to private consumer and public and private owners. Key agents and local communities will be involved in the project through social innovation actions.
