The energetic rehabilitation of built heritage, a wide labor market to be developed, needs different agents and areas that are not yet coordinated with each other.

In this context, and in the framework of the Moncloa Campus through its clusters of Cultural Heritage and Global Change and New Energies will take place an international conference on energy efficiency in historic buildings.

This Conference This congress will take place on the 29th and 30th of September at the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid. It will be a dynamic space of networking between such agents: researchers in these areas, companies and professionals involved in the process, owners, managers and users of historic buildings, a fundamental asset and value for the present and future of Europe.

Researchers on the fields of energy efficiency and historic buildings are invited to submit original papers and contribute with presentations or posters in the Conference. Papers should cover one of the following five main areas:

1.- Techniques, materials, methodologies and solutions.
2.- Governance, mediation and management.
3.- Legal and technical regulations.
4.- Financing: profitability and costs.
5.- Promotion and information.

This international Conference aims to promote networking among researchers and other agents involved in the process of saving energy in historic buildings.

Researchers will be able to discuss cooperations, commercial agreements and new projects initiatives with companies and professionals in the energy sector or in the area of architectural restoration. The Conference also intends to reduce the gap between science and society, and promote contact between researchers and users, owners and managers of historic buildings.

Researchers can also participate in interviews with other stakeholders, hear their colleagues’ presentations and get to know companies and providers of the sector.
