Exploratory study on the potential and risks of self-renovation in the Brussels region

Self-renovation could be a way of achieving the climate objectives of the Brussels-Capital Region's Renovation Plan more quickly, i.e. attaining an average C+ energy performance for residential buildings by 2050. It would also enable a response to the rise in energy prices, allowing those in need to be included in the renovation of Brussels' heritage. The aim of this study is to verify whether these assumptions can be applied in the Brussels-Capital Region.
