The use of property valuaon is an essenal aspect of the property lifecycle.

Incorporang energy eciency and renewable energy consideraonsinto valuaon pracce is essenal to raise awareness on the value of

invesng in energy eciency (EE) and renewable energy (RE) installaons

amongst prospecve buyers, sellers, lenders and investors. Being able to

demonstrate the business case to these built environment stakeholders

is a necessary prerequisite to accelerang the market transion towards

sustainable buildings in Europe.

In this context, RenoValue aims to develop and pilot tailored trainingmaterial for pracsing valuaon professionals from across the EU.

The training material will provide professionals with a more profound

knowledge base regarding the latest energy eciency and renewable

energy technological soluons, their respecve impact on various economic

building performance aspects, relevant informaon sources, as well as

methodological and theorecal guidance so that valuaon professionalscan appropriately factor energy eciency and renewable energy issues into

the valuaon process and advise their clients accordingly.
