Résumé des résultats (Abstract) (Anglais)

RENOMIZE presents well-selected innovations in the processes and products for the full renovation trajectory from ideation, over delivery, maintenance and end-of life. Building on an impressive experience in the field, the following innovations have been put forward: • Decision support tools for optimisation of building site preparations, integration of balconies and overhangs, and for the integration and selection of HVAC and RES technology; • Optimisation of the process planning using advancements to spatiotemporal planning; • Development of an improved anchoring system and panel-panel connections, optimised for automized non-sequential mounting, de/remounting; • Self-positioning system and end-effectors thereon to support autonomous anchor and panel placement; • Phased optimisation of the factory automation for cost reduction and quality improvement. These innovations will lead to cost savings beyond the aimed 25% and considerable time savings. Elaborate testing for disruptive events is previewed in Switzerland and Spain, while 4 complementary demonstrations will be delivered in Estonia, Switzerland, France, and Belgium. Stakeholders are engaged from the onset of the project, and wider uptake is actively integrated in RENOMIZE’s concept through certification, technical assistance and various capacity building activities.
