Conservation Compatible Energy Retrofit of Historic Buildings

By DOCOMOMO Belgium / January, 26, 2014 / 0 comments

Workshop | 6th February 2014 – 16.00 to 18.00 | Rue de Pascale 45-47, 1040 Brussels

How to improve long term preservation of historic buildings and city centres with high quality energy retrofit. Results from an interdisciplinary project.

logo3encult3ENCULT & Architects’ Council of Europe (ACE) warmly invite you to join a workshop on energy efficient solutions to preserve your historic buildings in Brussels on 6th February 2014.

The project 3ENCULT bridges the gap between conservation of historic buildings and climate protection, which is not an antagonism at all: historic buildings will only survive if maintained as living space. Energy efficient retrofit is useful for structural protection as well as for comfort reasons – comfort for users and “comfort” for heritage collections.

The joint task of conservation and energy efficient retrofit is highly interdisciplinary. The 3ENCULT consortium consists of scientists and stakeholders, especially on the level of SMEs, from the fields of diagnostics, conservation, building physics, sustainability, architecture and lighting up to cybernetics, thus guaranteeing both, the development of sustainable solutions and the impact on European economy.
