Workshops and discussions: 14:00–17:30
Networking drinks and celebrations from 17:30
Co-operation for Better Renovation: From the Sector to the Neighbourhood
How can we accelerate large-scale, high-performance renovation? How can we improve cooperation between stakeholders to scale up projects and develop new models?
Ressorts and Le Cluster Eco-Bâtiment invite you to an afternoon of exchange and collective intelligence dedicated to cooperation dynamics within the high-performance renovation sector.
This open event will bring together stakeholders from across the entire value chain: companies, clusters, housing providers, local authorities, funding bodies, design offices, European partners, and anyone wishing to contribute to transforming the sector.
A (truly) collaborative event
The programme includes workshops, sharing of best practice and experience, and discussions aimed at identifying key levers for cooperation to accelerate high-performance renovation, from individual buildings to whole neighbourhoods.
The event will also showcase resources, tools and training developed through several European projects and sector initiatives, covering themes such as prefabrication and industrialisation (Prefablab), neighbourhood-scale renovation training, off-site processes and Lean tools, energy modules and technical solutions, financial levers for scaling up projects, joint procurement schemes, and inter-housing provider approaches.
And afterwards… an informal evening to continue the conversation
The afternoon will continue with an informal evening event including a debate and networking drinks, offering an opportunity to continue discussions in a relaxed setting, meet the European partners present, and develop new collaborations.
Workshops and Panel Discussions (List of speakers to be confirmed)
Workshops held in French
• Neighbourhood Renovation: Balancing Tailored Solutions and Large-Scale Delivery
How can we reconcile households' specific needs with a standardised renovation offer that can be effectively deployed at neighbourhood scale? Topics include volume, aggregation, contracting models, standardisation and efficiency.
• Launching a Group Heat Pump Purchase Scheme – Lessons Learned and Future Perspectives
The LIFE Street HP Reno project enabled the launch of the first group heat pump purchase schemes in the Gironde region. Drawing on successes, lessons learned and challenges encountered, this workshop will review the project's results in France and explore the future prospects and long-term viability of this type of initiative.
• Lean, BIM and Offsite Construction: How Do We Train the Professionals of Tomorrow?
Presentation of the BIM process and co-development of the French training kit.
• Visit of the i-Factory and Discussion on Shared Facilities for the Construction Sector (PréfabLab)
• The Fundamentals of the Energiesprong France Specification
Since the publication of the first Energiesprong specification in 2020, numerous studies and projects have advanced our technical, social and environmental understanding of housing renovation. What key elements should be included in a new version of the Energiesprong specification? How much room should be left for innovation? Which performance targets should be achieved? Join us in co-creating this new reference framework for future projects.
• Collaborative Renovation Between Housing Providers: Renovating Together to Deliver Faster and Better
To accelerate high-performance energy renovation, collaborative approaches are emerging as a promising way to renovate more efficiently and at greater scale. What benefits can housing providers gain from working together? Should procurement, construction works or renovation strategies be pooled? Is a wave-based renovation approach relevant? And what role should energy performance guarantees play within these collective initiatives?
Workshops held in English for European stakeholders :
•Launching a Group Renovation Project: How to Mobilise Participants ? Lessons learned from a pilot project in Germany.
Drawing on several successful pilot projects, the German partners of Street HP Reno will present proven approaches to engage and motivate residents in collective renovation initiatives. Discover practical tools, key success factors, and actionable insights to help launch and scale similar projects in your own city.
•What could be the financing model of deep renovation ?
Three experts will showcase practical financing models for deep renovation and discuss their applicability across different contexts. The session will examine key success factors, persistent barriers, and the innovations needed to unlock large-scale investment in deep renovation.
