The role of Eurac Research:
Our researchers studied a renovation package and plug-and-play technologies that can be used to quickly renovate a building. They also tested heating and cooling systems and mechanical ventilation, and developed good practices to get private funding for renovation interventions.
Implemented technologies:
Water-to-water heat pumps connected to a geothermal field
