Operation, maintenance, improvement and promotion of the BUILD UP interactive web portal

The BUILD UP web portal is Europe's reference portal for energy efficiency and renewable energy in buildings. It is a requirement for the European Commission from the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive. The objective is to support Member States in the implementation of the Directive, namely through information sharing and awareness raising over the main regulatory, technology and market trends in the building sector. Using the existing BUILD UP services as a starting point, the services will include: a) IT maintenance and services as well as continued improvement of the website https://build-up.ec.europa.eu; b) production of articles, audio-visual content; sharing and promotion of existing knowledge, guidelines, tools and best practices for energy efficiency and renewable energy in buildings in support of the decarbonisation of the European Union’s building stock; c) promotion of the BUILD UP website and further development of the existing BUILD UP community of professionals; d) Organisation of technical events, including management and logistical support; and e) Support the implementation of the European Commission’s BUILD UP Skills initiative, including support to the organisation of European exchange meetings.
