Sustainability challenges are also present in heritage care, where a growing number of actors are realizing applications in energy efficiency, insulation and circularity. However, heritage buildings also present particular obstacles in making heat demand sustainable. Together with the city of Diest and the heritage foundation of Flemisg-Brabant, we are working within an innovation grant from the province of Flemish Brabant on a vision to maximize the use of green heat sources within heritage buildings using various tools.
