🟨 Why is the LEGOFIT project so important to us? ✨ The project's focus on accelerating the #renovation of #energypositive #residential #buildings aligns perfectly with ABUD’s mission to drive impactful #climateaction. ⚡ We actively participate in numerous EU-funded #RnD initiatives to pioneer #energyefficiency and #positiveenergytransition across all scales—from individual buildings to neighborhoods and cities. Projects such as BIO4EEB, ENSNARE, StepUP project, and syn_ikiaEU highlight our commitment to advancing #positiveenergydistricts, #energyefficient buildings, #biobased materials, #digitalization, and #codesign for a sustainable future. 🔌 🌍 🌿 Read on to find out more about ABUD - thank you for introducing us! ✨ https://lnkd.in/eAsnMN9k

🟨 “As a member of LEGOFIT’s multidisciplinary consortium of 20 partners across 10 EU countries, ABUD contributes to developing, implementing, and validating advanced approaches for achieving #EnergyPositiveHomes (EPH) through scalable and replicable solutions for construction and renovation. ABUD leads WP5, which focuses on coordinating pilot implementations. These pilot sites, located in various EU countries, serve as testing grounds for innovative solutions under diverse conditions. By focusing on scalability and locally representative buildings, ABUD ensures that the process is widely applicable across the EU.” - read LEGOFIT’s newsletter to explore the interview with our CEO, András Reith, about our role in this cutting-edge research project. 👏🌱🌳

🟨 We had the privilege of hosting Jeanne Bobillon, an #Erasmus+ student from France, who made remarkable contributions to our work, particularly within the GreenInCities research project we’re involved in. 🌿 🌍 Guided by Senior Consultant Viktor Bukovszki, Jeanne developed an innovative #qgis plug-in to detect urban ecological networks, which will feed into #ecosysntax, our own #ecological #networkanalysis tool combining #gis, #spacesyntax, and remote sensing. ✨She shared her reflections on her time with us at ABUD: https://lnkd.in/dfHjVaRj 🌱 Her creativity and expertise brought a fresh perspective to our work, and her impact will resonate in future projects. Jeanne, we'd love to see you again next time you're in Budapest! 💚 #ErasmusPlus #Innovation #GIS #GreeninCities

🟨 How does the ENSNARE project use #Operational #DigitalTwin technology to optimise #buildingperformance and support #netzero energy goals in Europe? 🏢 To explore this transformative approach, read the full article below by our fellow consortium partner, IES Ltd.: https://lnkd.in/encjRW_k 💻 Within the ENSNARE project, we are primarily focusing on the #methodology and #validation of the #digitisation processes and #simulations for three different climatic environments. 🏨

🟨 On the 3rd of December, we had the privilege of contributing to the Central European Energy Conference 2024, organised by the Slovak Foreign Policy Association in Bratislava. ABUD's Senior Consultant, Viktor Bukovszki, joined the conversation on sustainable energy solutions as a panelist in “#WindEnergy: Environmental and Community Solutions for Wind Energy Success.” 🌪️ 🌬️ The panel discussion explored strategies to overcome #environmental, land and community-related barriers in wind energy development, highlighting not only concerns but also the benefits for local communities. ✅ It was chaired by Oldrich Sklenar, a Research Fellow at AMO, and brought together leading experts Jan Lacko, Member of the Executive Committee, Slovak Association of Sustainable Energy (SAPI); Thomas Podlesak, Director, WEB Windenergie AG; and Viktor Bukovszki, Senior Consultant, ABUD. 🍃 Viktor highlighted the critical need to go beyond technological advancements: "#CommunityEnergy approach is the best bet to accelerate the proliferation of wind power, but we must learn to support the #socialinnovation, not just the technology. The path forward is participation, not solely market solutions; #communityconsent, not compensation; integration of #ruraldevelopment, #energytransition, and #natureconservation, not siloed policies." 🔌 🌍💡 The takeaway? The future of the #energytransition relies on building trust, fostering collaboration, and ensuring that #localcommunities share in the benefits of sustainable development. ✨ We're grateful for the invitation and proud to have contributed to these transformative conversations for a more resilient, inclusive, and sustainable energy future. 📑 Read our summary here: https://lnkd.in/dgUA8U8M #EnergyTransition #WindEnergy #Sustainability #ABUD #CEEC2024 #CommunityEnergy

🟨 We’re thrilled to share that our Senior Consultant, Viktor Bukovszki, presented at the IX. ViaFuturi Conference, hosted by the University of Pécs Faculty of Business and Economics. ⚡ 💡 Viktor's presentation focused on our #energyCommunity survey and database, shedding light on the immense potential of energy communities within the framework of a #blueEconomy. You can find the results of our research here: https://lnkd.in/ddTyQ-pf 🌍 The ViaFuturi conference series, initiated in 2006 by the IME Cluster with active collaboration from the University of Pécs, explores topics like #energyefficiency, #renewableenergy, sustainability, and community development. This year’s conference centered on the blue economy, emphasizing how strengthening #ecologicalsystems can provide natural services beyond traditional sustainability approaches. 👏 Congratulations to Viktor for representing our team and contributing valuable insights to this important dialogue! 💡🌊 #BlueEconomy #EnergyCommunities #Sustainability #ViaFuturi2023

🟨 Well done, Team ABUD! 👏 Our team participated in a #Climathon organised by GiLE Foundation under an EIT Climate-KIC CEE initiative, for addressing #urbanDesign and #mobility challenges in Zugló, Hungary. The event was part of a global movement of self-organised events in cities aimed at laying the groundwork for transformational change to: 🌱 Raise awareness about local climate challenges and share climate-relevant learnings; ⛰️ Build and strengthen local #ecosystems; 🌳 Inspire projects and #climateaction that address systemic problems leading to climate change locally. 🎉 Congrats, Sofia Rostilova, Derique Mikhail Casio, Oussama Elkarymy ✨
