RESINBUIL is a project financed by the IEE programme (Intelligent Energy Europe). It was approved in December 2005 and its total duration is 26 months since January 2006. The RESINBUIL project encourages the use of small scale renewable energy appliances in buildings in four provinces of Spain, Italy, Slovenia and Romania. Its main target groups are local authorities, business associations, constructors, professional associations and the general public. The partners of the project will analyse the current development rates and market barriers before implementing a threefold strategy consisting of: ü Development of new local markets through regulatory shifts (including local tax cuts), as well as commercial agreements between installers and local banks with Energy Agencies as intermediates ü Promotion through permanent exhibitions in Spain, Slovenia and Italy and through a 4-month awareness-raising campaign using radio messages, local TV spots, posters, etc. | | ü Development of training courses on renewable energy sources engineering in buildings, addressed to architects and engineers: (i) a master level attendance course at the University of Burgos (Spain); (ii) an expert level on-line, web-based course, for technicians from the partner´s countries in the project. Expected and/or achieved results Increased use of renewable energies at the local level, especially solar and biomass
Public and private cooperation on the installation of RES appliances in buildings
Reduce air pollution
Facilitating the application of the EU Buildings Directive.
