EFCA joins BUILD UP

In January 2010, EFCA joined the BUILD UP initiative as a Partner, following an invitation from the European Commission. www.buildup.eu is a new environment for building professionals, local authorities and building occupants willing to share their experience on how to cut energy consumption in buildings.

The key aim of this European initiative is to reduce the energy consumption of buildings across Europe by transferring best practices to the market and fostering their uptake. BUILD UP will also keep EFCA updated about EU energy policy for buildings.

On www.buildup.eu, EFCA is enabled to interact with others and to access:
- The latest news and events in the field;
- A database of resources, guidelines and tools;
- A database of case histories.

The BUILD UP interactive web portal is intended to catalyse and release Europe’s collective intelligence for an effective implementation of energy-saving measures in buildings.

EFCA will have visibility by being able to :
- Announce news;
- Share library resources – such as guidelines and best practices;
- Propose events;
- Submit successful cases.

Moreover, BUILD UP provides a thematic virtual community. The members of this open forum will be able to view the most relevant cases, news, documents or events that EFCA will have selected for them.

No money is involved in the BUILD UP Partnership, but it requires effort, especially to actively submit proposals of good practice examples and resources on the BUILD UP web portal. The BUILD UP Partners – also EFCA’s members in the countries – are expected to bring a substantial contribution to the promotion and dissemination of BUILD UP.

As a BUILD UP Partner, EFCA shares its existing knowledge, guidelines, tools and best practices for energy-saving measures in buildings across Europe.
