What is a LIFE-integrated project?

• Implement the environmental and climate legislation and objectives on a larger scale and to increase the impact of the LIFE programme in the EU.

• Act as a catalyst for the implementation of plans, programmes and strategies developed on a regional, multiregional or national scale as a result of EU legislation.

• Central are the involvement of stakeholders, the effects in the long term and the coordination with complementary actions and projects that contribute to the realisation of the same strategic plan.

LIFE IP CA 2016 BE REEL! is being realised with support from the European Union funding instrument, LIFE.


The LIFE integrated project BE REEL! will give a strong boost to the realization of the

ambitious Flemish and Walloon renovation strategies towards 2050 by means of five levers

• overall objective = creating the basis and conditions for the full implementation of the strategic housing renovation plans of Flanders and Wallonia

• a long lasting, strong increase in the renovation rate for both regions and a radical : from 1 to 3% / year

• improvement of the energy performance: > 75%

The BE REEL! partner cities set up various renovation projects and demonstrate the technical and financial feasibility of profound renovations. The focus here is on a collective approach.

Partner cities are the City of Antwerp, Mechelen, Ghent, Mouscron and La Louvière.

The demonstration projects concern:

• collective renovations of houses to low-energy and almost energy-neutral homes,

• thorough renovations of large and small apartment blocks,

• collective solar panels,

• neighborhood renovations,

• shallow geothermal,

• energy investments for vulnerable populations

• third party financing for energy renovations.

These good practices are translated into guidelines, scenarios and training programs that are widely distributed among stakeholders.

� D. Capacity Building� E. Communication

� Budget

D. Capacity Building

• Deep energy renovation is technically feasible, if all parties involved have the necessary expertise.

• Building professionals needs consist mainly of information to make the benefits visible, necessary interventions, long-term vision for financial support.

• Building professionals may now take BEN courses (Fl. ) or PAE Renovation Advice courses (Wall.) which are organized by some educational institutions.

The BE REEL! project will support these already existing activities by:

� Intensive knowledge building and training at regional and local authorities and with

stakeholders (construction sector, social housing, education, renovation consultants,

financial sector) on new policy instruments, innovative business models and good

practices.

�Learning networks strengthen interregional and international cooperation, and ensure

that the results of BE REEL! improved and optimally used.
