Workshop “A new generation of thermomodernization”
On May 27, 2022, at the GIL Gallery of the Cracow University of Technology, the workshop “A new generation of thermomodernization of building stocks taking into account the improvement of the climate” was held, organized by a shareholder member of SPCleantech, the Małopolska Center for Construction-Energy-efficient together with the Center for the Improvement of Scientific Research of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Support in the organization and financing of the meeting was provided by another member of SPCleantech, Miejskie Przedsiębiorstwo Energetyki Cieplnej S.A. in Cracow.
The workshop “A new generation of building stock thermomodernization with a view to improving the climate” is part of the campaign for accessibility in the context of sustainable construction.
The project is organized as part of the project “Accessibility Hub – Center for Practical Accessibility Learning“
The workshop began with welcoming the guests by Małgorzata Fedorczak-Cisak, Director of the Małopolska Center for Energy Efficient Construction, and prof. Marek Bomberg (Clarkson University) and the official opening by the Rector for General Affairs, Tomasz Kapecki.
