The SERAFIN network invites you to take part in debates on French and European public policies, local initiatives fostering ambitious and affordable energy renovation for all, and bank financing of this drive.
This is an opportunity for you to discover the local players and initiatives who support households in their ambitious renovation projects and facilitate access to financing at both national and European level.
As “MonAccompagnateurRénov’”, a French support scheme for home energy renovation, is being rolled out, we are celebrating the completion of the European ORFEE project, which led to the creation of the SERAFIN network and its standard reference system. Deployed by third-party financing companies in France, the scheme ensures the quality and compliance of high-performance renovations.
We will take stock of innovations in financing and the role and initiatives of the banks. The day will also provide an opportunity to present the new European EU Peers project, which aims to develop a European community of practice for One-Stop Shops for home energy renovation.
Registration is free but mandatory. The number of seats is limited, you will shortly receive a confirmation of your registration.
Online participation (via webstreaming) is only available for interested participants not located in France. The event will be transmitted in English.
