CALECHE

Coherent, Acceptable, Low Emission Cultural Heritage Efficient Renovation

CALECHE aims to develop a decision support system (DSS) linked to specific protocols for the renovation of historic buildings. This DSS will implement a people-centered, holistic and multi-benefit approach. CALECHE will focus on improving the performance of three promising technologies and techniques for the energy renovation of historic buildings: 1. Interior bio-insulation with high hygrometric performance 2. Methodology for window conservation and repair 3. Building-Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) By developing this DSS and improving these three technologies, CALECHE aims to enable the renovation of historic buildings in a way that preserves cultural value, increases energy efficiency, and promotes public acceptance of innovative solutions.
