An event jointly organised by the European Parliament’s YOUTH Intergroup and Renovate Europe, hosted by Brando Benifei MEP (Italy, S&D) in room A5G305 of the European Parliament.
Digitalisation is sweeping through the energy renovation sector, from collaborative robots and virtual reality modelling (BIM) to indoor prefabrication, drones and 3D printing.
- How can we address the widening gap between rising youth unemployment and an ageing construction sector through an increasingly attractive, digitalised energy renovation sector?
- Which opportunities in the MFF can support SMEs and equip the next generation with the technical skills to face this challenge?
- What is the potential to improve working conditions, increase productivity, reduce construction costs and improve the energy efficiency of buildings?
