Refinancing is not a common practice in most of the countries involved in the project. Therefore this document intends to facilitate a standardised set of stipulations that, if incorporated in EES contracts, could increase the chance of projects being refinanced by a financial institution after they have been implemented. These stipulations are not meant to be contractual clauses, but are meant to show which concepts are recommended to be incorporated in EES contracts signed between the EES provider and the client.

ComActivate focusses on solutions for multi-family apartment buildings to reduce energy poverty. One key concept in ComActivate is the Resource Center (RC). It is an institutional entity that promotes and supports energy efficient investments and community engagement on a local level, connects various stakeholders in the pursuit of this aim - the local municipality, NGOs, SMEs and the residents - and provides advice on matters of energy efficiency to a broad range of actors, most importantly to residents and housing managers. The study presents informative examples of Resource Centers.

Quantifying the wider benefits of energy efficient building retrofits is crucial to incentivise householder retrofit investments. This research recognises the value of key performance indicators (KPIs) for assessing and demonstrating retrofitting benefits and provides an assessment of KPIs for evaluating retrofits. An integrated framework for evaluating retrofits using a set of economic, social, and environmental KPIs is proposed. This KPI framework is then applied in a pre- and post-retrofit assessment of five case study dwellings located in Ireland.

The present publication is related to experience made in the H2020 Save the Homes project. It presents the customer journey developed in Save the Homes and concentrates on risk and how to avoid them. This customer journey which consists of twenty steps, acts as a guideline through the whole process. Each of these steps is elaborated on, giving an insight on the actions that are needed, the roles, the risks and opportunities that arise.

The H2020 project Save the Homes was focusing on implementing its Renovation one-stop shop models in the pilot cities of Rotterdam, Netherlands, and Valencia, Spain, as well as the follower cities of Ljubljana, Slovenia and Sant Cugat, Spain. This publication deals with the monitoring data plan in the context of the two pilot ecosystems, defining which specific measurements and measuring protocols should be considered throughout the different stops to obtain data about energy, indoor environmental quality, satisfaction and wellbeing of occupants in the pilot buildings.
