About InCUBE
InCUBE (an INClUsive toolBox for accelerating and smartening deep renovation) aims to make the renovation process of existing buildings in the European Union more sustainable by:
- reducing renovation costs (working more efficiently)
- saving and producing energy through smart and local solutions
- monitoring and analyzing predicted and actual energy consumption in the process
At the end of the project, the "InCUBE Suite" will be delivered. This tool enables seamless coordination of various renovation phases, while leveraging data to improve tenant comfort and actively integrate the renovated buildings into the local energy system, for example, by serving as storage or renewable energy generators. Industrialization, new renewable energy sources, digitalization, and business models are central to this. Inclusivity and equality in the training of (potential) employees play a significant role throughout the project.
