EU projects bridging research, practice and scaling
The team behind ShiftUp has been active in EU research projects since 2020, developing new approaches to collective initiatives and testing them at scale.
LIFE AREC Reno

LIFE Renew It
Renew It aims to make comprehensive energy renovations more affordable and inclusive, providing households affected by high energy costs with a reliable and long-term affordable housing and energy situation. The project tests collective, self-managed energy renovations. The consortium comprises partners from Latvia, Spain, France, Germany and the Netherlands.
LIFE Street HP Reno
Street HP Reno promotes large-scale deployment of heat pumps through a serial installation process in cooperation with local trades. Close collaboration with municipalities as trusted partners is central. Pilot projects are taking place in Germany, France and Italy.
Transform-ER

Interreg NSR Stronghouse
The Stronghouse project aimed to motivate and empower homeowners to undertake energy renovations. Its 26 partners from six countries supported homeowners in pilot municipalities from initial interest through planning, financing and commissioning of energy efficiency measures.
