GREENOV project launched at the Energy Show
Codema launched a call to create a European Network of Sustainable Renovation Suppliers under the GREENOV project at this year’s Energy Show in the RDS, 14 - 15 April 2010.
What GREENOV can do for you:
GREENOV will create a European network of sustainable renovation suppliers and can offer the following benefits:
- Increase the competitiveness of SMEs in the field of sustainable renovation, including energy efficiency of buildings and renewable energy.
- Training and support services to innovative SMEs.
- Valuable information-exchange to improve the knowledge and expertise of sustainable renovation of existing buildings.
As part of the GREENOV project, Codema will carry out the following actions:
- Host a transnational panel of experts in Dublin on “Energy Efficiency of Buildings: Possibilities and Products”.
- Recruit appropriate SMEs to join the network through marketing, networking and events and short-list them for eco-innovation prizes.
- Develop a sustainable renovation electronic Supply Tender Portal.
As part of the project, Codema will also select a panel of experts in Ireland and - together with its European partners - will contribute to the build-up of an emerging North-West European belt of “green clusters” in the field of energy efficiency renovation, making it even stronger and sustainable in a context of high competitiveness of clusters at national, European and international levels.
Commenting on Codema’s involvement in the GREENOV project, director Gerry Wardell said: “We are really excited about launching this call for a sustainable renovation supply chain. This will help local contractors and suppliers to bid successfully on tenders for energy refurbishment works that are now open to competition from abroad."
The GREENOV project runs for five years and has received European Regional Development Funding through INTERREG IVB.
The countries involved in this project are: Ireland, UK, Belgium, Netherlands, France and Germany.
