Call To Create Renovation Suppliers Network

Dublin energy agency, Codema is to launch a call to create a European network of sustainable renovation suppliers under the GREENOV project.

The GREENOV project is an initiative that aims to develop the economic sector of sustainable renovation by "stimulating innovation within small and medium enterprises (SMEs) across North-Western Europe".

GREENOV will offer training and support services to SMEs and will strive to improve the knowledge and expertise of sustainable renovation of existing buildings among suppliers. The project will also help to increase competitiveness among these suppliers, while finding effective solutions for the development of low carbon cities.


Commenting on Codema’s involvement in the GREENOV project, the agency’s director Gerry Wardell said: "We are really excited about launching this call for a sustainable renovation supply chain. This will help local contractors and suppliers to bid successfully on tenders for energy refurbishment works that are now open to competition from abroad."

The initiative will be launched at this year's Energy Show, which takes place at the RDS in Dublin on 14-15 April.
