FEEDSCHOOLS

Project achievements






The user-friendly 3-PART FEEDSCHOOLS TOOLKIT, translated into national languages, can be used for free on ENEA website. 

1) Energy and Resource Efficiency Application for calculating energy savings and reductions of CO2 emissions resulting from implementation of various energy efficiency and RES measures. ERE App is available for download here

2) Database on novel energy efficiency technologies and good practices: innovative techniques, materials, components and systems, for retrofitting existing school buildings and converting them to NZEB buildings. Database is available here

3) Financial Application with optimal funding models available in Central Europe, from ERDF and national levels, as well as from the private sector, that will allow public bodies to afford costs of schools NZEB renovation. E-learning course is available here

In central Europe large parts of the existing building stock were built before 1970 and as a result, performance is not in line with required energy efficiency standards. Renovation of buildings emerges as an urgent issue but while incentives are provided to private investors, public building renovation is more difficult as local authorities face significant limitations of budget. Another barrier is the lack of knowledge of performance/cost characteristics for efficient renovation of buildings.

The FEEDSCHOOLS project aims to provide local authorities with new solutions, both technical and financial, which will help them to implement ‘nearly Zero Energy Building’ (NZEB) renovation activities in schools. The innovative approach consists in developing a transnational and holistic support toolkit and a web database of innovative best practices for NZEB renovation. FEEDSCHOOLS also provided open lessons focused on behavioural change in schools.
