Market and Barriers
In building construction field, who wants to:
Design
Improve
Retro-fit
Usually has:
•
Inexperience in financing: Bank loans, public schemes, third party financing
•
Lack of awareness of energy efficiency in buildings (general public)
•
No clear ideas about which new interventions are available and their potential savings
•
Lack of appreciation in the green housing – unwilling to spend money
•
Small network of stakeholders, with “old-fashioned” technical knowledge
•
Wrong vision of “Spending less now is better than save money later”

UMBRELLA’s solution
The aim of UMBRELLA is to overcome market barriers
The UMBRELLA project addresses previous issues through the development of a webbased decision-support application.
This allows users to:
• identify, understand and visualize energy efficiency and reduction measures, applicable
to their building
• align these with optimised business models, to enable greater operational efficiencies
and savings, for the best return on investment
