Pre-commercial Procurement of Breakthrough Solutions for 100% Renewable Energy Supply in Buildings

Supporting renewable energy applications by bringing together 9 affiliates from 6 countries with more than 21,000 public buildings and making R&D investments of 7 Million Euros by EU is targeted with the procuRE project, in which Özyeğin University - Faculty of Architecture and Design - Building Materials and Physics Laboratory is a partner. Within the scope of this project, it is aimed to provide existing public buildings located in different cities within the EU with 100% renewable energy. Various R&D companies are expected to develop innovative and original renewable energy systems in line with this purpose to be applied in public buildings selected within the scope of the project. These developed systems will be purchased through a tender method and implemented in public buildings, and improvement works will be implemented in facilities so that the annual energy requirement of each building will be met totally from renewable energy systems. The ÖZÜ team will carry out the necessary research studies to ensure that the building in Istanbul uses 100 % renewable energy and does not consume other energy resources.
