Potential for learning or transfer
Green HoMe selected 5 specific value chains with the aim of leveraging the potential of the Calabria region to develop globally competitive solutions, in line with the priorities identified by the regional innovation strategy.
Greenhome can be transferred in other regions where the building sector is characterized by highly energy-intensive, structurally and technologically obsolete, qualitatively degraded buildings. The current market need is therefore aimed at building redevelopment and improving the energy efficiency of existing structures.
