September /October highlights:
2022 EUSEW Energy Day! ACE Walk & Talk: Making Sustainable Architecture Work - 29/09
On Thursday 29 September (afternoon), as part of the EU Sustainable Energy Week (EUSEW), the Architects’ Council of Europe is organising a « Walk & Talk » event, which will consist of:
- a GUIDED TOUR around the site of Tour & Taxis (Brussels),
- a POLICY DEBATE, which will bring together representatives from various EU Commission’s Directorate-Generals, for a conversation on the legislative and policy levers for greater quality in the built environment. It will notably be an opportunity to discuss the ongoing recast of the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) – certainly the most critical EU piece of legislation that will set the pace of decarbonisation of the EU building stock for the next decade.

The Sustainable Places conference series is the place to be in order to find out which projects are being funded by the European Commission and how these help us to tackle sustainability and climate change targets in the built environment. This year, four projects which the ACE is involved will be present: BIM-SPEED, Drive 0, ARISE and BUSGoCircular.
On 7 September, BIM-SPEED will present the final project results on a "Harmonised Building Information Speedway for Energy-Efficient Renovation".
On 8 September, Drive 0 will take part in the ‘Off-Site Plug-and-Play Prefab Systems’ session with a focus on how to engage the consumers in the decarbonisation of EU building stock.
On 9 September, ARISE and BUSGoCircular will participate in a workshop about Energy Skills 3.0.
ACE is proud to have been invited by the European Commission to the Extended programme of EUSEW 2022 with two of its projects. On 21 September 2022 from 12:00 to 13:30 (CET), ARISE and BUSGoCircular will debate the "Digitalisation of construction as a necessary step towards a clean energy transition" in the panel discussion about "Leveraging digitalisation and construction skills towards 2030 energy goals" together with nine other European-funded projects.

The Cultural-E consortium, in which ACE is a partner, is proud to invite you for a full day in Brussels: First will be the Mid-Term project Conference 'From Net Zero to Plus Energy Buildings: designing buildings for climate and cultural diversity', followed by an open workshop 'Unlock the value of Plus Energy Buildings and neighbourhoods' co-organised with the sister projects syn.ikia and EXCESS. The events will be held on 28 September at the Confindustria EU, Avenue de la Joyeuse Entrée 1, 1040 Brussels. The event is part of the EUSEW Sustainable Energy Days. The entrance is free of charge, though registration is mandatory via this form. Looking forward to meeting you there!
Another Energy Day will be organised by our Drive 0 project in Athens, Greece on 29 September. A free excursion will include a visit to the Greek demonstration building of the project and showcase the results achieved so far in terms of circular architecture and circular renovation of residential buildings. Contact us, if you like to participate via email [email protected]
The Erasmus University in Rotterdam, with which ACE is cooperating in the BIM-SPEED project, is organising a free online workshop focused on the architecture, engineering and construction sector and its digitalisation. This workshop promotes best practices in the industry, discusses regulatory requirements and primes the sector to start thinking about privacy and the consequences of AI implementation. You are welcome to join us on 21 October from 10 am - 1 pm (CET) and have your say! Register here.
