AUNA | The Spanish permanent multilateral Smart Finance FORUM for Smart Buildings

Original description

In extension of the work of the Sustainable Energy Investment Forums,

AÚNA proposes to create in Spain a permanent, multilevel, multilateral discussion FORUM, fully focused on sustainable building financing, for the effective and wide implementation of the Smart Finance for Smart Buildings initiative, with the following differential characteristics:

• From the building renovation sector, with a systemic approach led by Green Building Council España (GBCe)

• Based on GBCe’s knowledge in the field, from the GTR Reports to the national and international coordination of stakeholders’ collaborative processes of H2020 BUILD UPON projects, and the launching in Spain of the green mortgages initiative EeMap, which put GBCe in a unique position

• Able to bridge the gap between renovation and financing, by the incorporation at a leading discussion level of the most advanced players on all the interrelated aspects of financing, facilitated by the present openness of the financial world

• Oriented to a shared understanding, to draw significant advances in terms of ideas, to be incorporated by the stakeholders to their practices and policies

• Integrally based on the financial and stakeholders platforms aspects of the Commission Recommendation on Building Renovation

• Totally aligned with the Spanish Long Term Renovation Strategy, of which it becomes a key stream in continuation of the work already started, with full support from the Interministerial LTRS group of Spain (ERESEE)

• Four rounds of growing practical definition and outreach, with clearly defined progress indicators: a) preparatory; discussion FORUM definition and planning, b) extension to the wide renovation sector, c) citizenship outreach and d) shared contribution to the Spanish NECP and the ERESEE 2023

• Liaising with the SEIF organization and other relevant European Commission’s initiatives (e.g. Energy Efficiency Financial Institutions Group (EEFIG), Project Development Assistance (PDA) facilities, the Covenant of Mayors/SECAP initiatives”), international dimension through the European Network of GBCs, the Smart Cities and Communities (Lighthouse) network, and other consortium member networks
