This mini conference marks the end of the EU-funded MeeFS (Multifunctional Energy Efficient Facade System for Building Retrofitting) project, which was launched in January 2012. MeeFS set out to develop an innovative, energy efficient, multifunctional façade system for retrofitting, geared towards the residential building sector across Europe.

Over the course of five years the multidisciplinary team of 16 partners from 9 countries worked collaboratively on the façade development (including passive and active technologies, energy management system, non-intrusive installation, and new composite structural material), façade evaluation (of energy efficiency, composite material life cycle and fire resistance), and façade demonstration in a real life building in Merida, Spain.

The project’s final event is open to all stakeholders interested in energy efficient solutions in the construction sector. This includes, but is not limited to, stakeholders from the construction and energy sectors, regulators, the research community, and policy-makers. During the conference, the partners will showcase the technology developed, share the lessons learned from the MeeFS project and discuss how to bring multifunctional pre-fabricated facades closer to the market. The event will allow for an exchange of views on the proposed innovative technologies, and facilitate networking opportunities and synergies with potential early adopters and users throughout Europe, and will be followed by a cocktail reception.

The event is free of charge, but the registration is necessary. To register please follow the link: http://meefsfinalevent.eventbrite.com

Please note that the registration closes on 9 November 2016. For more information please visit the MEEFS website (www.meefs-retrofitting.eu).
