All the SUPER-HEERO consortium members gathered in an online General Assembly meeting on 17 and 18 May 2021, to assess the activities performed in the first period of the project and plan for the upcoming tasks.
During these 12 months, our consortium carried out an impressive work to develop the overall project’s theoretical framework, researching, analysing and identifying the policy framework and potential barriers in Spain and Italy, the project’s two pilot countries, to implement innovative financial instruments and business models to make supermarkets and their customers realise energy efficiency renovation of buildings.
Now, we enter the second phase of the project, which will be dedicated to set up collaboration agreements with specific supermarkets that will serve as pilot units where energy audits will be performed, smart meters will be installed, and the innovative financial schemes developed by the project, such as crowdfunding, leasing, etc., will be tested.
