Scaling Super-Heero

Upscaling of Community Based Energy Efficiency Retrofitting

Scaling SuperHeero is born from the successful results of SUPER-HEERO EU project, which developed an innovative financing scheme for the energy efficiency retrofitting of supermarkets. Shoppers, citizens and communities were involved via several crowdlending and reward campaigns. Thanks to that, several supermarkets in Italy got retrofitted (e.g., with installation of PV and batteries, ec.) and started producing the first results. With Scaling Super-Heero there is the opportunity to further sharpen the process, and ignite the multi-sided business model from the supermarket community, to commercial shopping centers, retailers, schools and energy communities. The core value proposition of the project is triggering energy efficiency interventions, fostering community engagement and generating social impact.
