Analysis of Energy Retrofit Assessment Methodologies in Buildings by European Research Projects

Energy retrofit of existing buildings is one of the main keys to achieve European Union’s decarbonising objectives defined in the European Green Deal. In order to proceed into them, European policy has been adapted and several research projects are developed. The aim of this paper is to analyse the...
