LIFE SKEMA is a partner in the project, providing both technical support and coordination, project management, financial management, and monitoring. EPC is also responsible for the Communications WP and for verifying the quality and effectiveness of the training activities proposed in the project.
The LIFE SKEMA – SKill Ecosystem, Market-driven learning and Advanced training for green and smart installers project was funded under the LIFE 2024 CET – Clean Energy Transition call, in response to the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) and the European decarbonization targets for the building sector. This sector is responsible for 40% of energy consumption and 36% of CO2 emissions in Europe. The lack of up-to-date skills among installers is one of the main obstacles to the renovation process and transition to smart and green buildings. The LIFE SKEMA project aims to address this need by laying the foundations for a solid and ambitious training system to support the green transition in the building sector.
