European project for Training on Renewable Energy solutions and energy Efficiency in retrofitting (REE_TROFIT)

Abstract: REE_TROFIT project (founded by EU Commission in the IEE programme) aims to contribute to solve the shortage of local qualified and accredited retrofitting experts, as foreseen in the EPBD and its recast - and as indicated by various European countries in an assessment by the EC - for increasing the energy performance of the existing building stock. REE_TROFIT will use in-house, the know-how and experiences of participants in carrying out vocational courses on innovative eco-building technologies. REE_TROFIT project define best practices for institutionalization and implementation of vocational courses on renewable energy solutions and energy efficiency in retrofitting, set up and implement a large-scale educational scheme and by fostering exchange of knowledge and best practices among stakeholders.
