Public Building Renovations: Challenges and Solutions for Central Eastern Europe

PNEC – The Association of Municipalities Polish Network “Energie Cités” is organising this online event on Tuesday, 10 December 2024, 10:00 – 12:00 CET, in collaboration with consortium partners and within the framework of EUKI project OUR-CEE – Overcoming Underperforming Renovations in CEE.  The renovation of public buildings plays a pivotal role in enhancing energy efficiency and significantly reducing carbon emissions.
