At the recent La Salle Sustainability Lectures, the RETABIT project took center stage in a session titled “Renovating Buildings for a Sustainable Future: Insights from TIMEPAC and RETABIT Projects.” The presentation highlighted the essential role of renovating existing buildings in meeting the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals outlined in the 2030 Agenda.

The session examined how improving energy efficiency, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and enhancing the comfort and well-being of occupants are critical factors in transforming the built environment. Insights from the TIMEPAC and RETABIT projects demonstrate how data-driven techniques and innovative tools can guide building owners, architects, engineers, and contractors in adopting sustainable renovation practices.

Participants gained valuable knowledge on the impact of strategic building renovations, reinforcing the importance of sustainable practices in shaping a greener urban future.
