● CircHub Joint Workshop on Sustainable & Energy-Efficient Building Materials

Connecting Research, Innovation and Energy Efficiency

To mark the World Energy Efficiency Day on March 5th, RECONSTRUCT is joining forces with its CircHub sister projects to co-organise a joint workshop dedicated to bio-based and circular solutions for energy-efficient buildings.

Taking place in Naples, Italy, the workshop brings together Horizon Europe projects working at the intersection of sustainable construction, circularity and energy efficiency, providing a valuable opportunity to exchange knowledge and strengthen collaboration across initiatives addressing shared challenges.

The event will serve as a space for deeper cross-project dialogue and synergies among research and innovation projects developing the next generation of building materials.

Programme

CircHub in Action

Buildings account for a over 40% of Europe’s energy use and greenhouse emissions. In this context, bio-based materials and circular construction approaches play a key role in reducing energy demand, lowering carbon footprints, and supporting the EU’s climate and circular economy objectives.

Through this joint initiative, the CircHub projects aim to:

• Showcase recent research results and demonstrations on sustainable and circular building materials
• Discuss opportunities and challenges related to integrating energy efficiency and circularity in the built environment
• Identify policy and market pathways that can accelerate the uptake of innovative, low-carbon construction solutions
• Strengthen collaboration among EU-funded projects addressing similar challenges
