4. Department of Electromechanical Engineering UNIVERSITY OF BURGOS, SPAIN RESINBUIL: International Project for the Introduction of Renewable Energies in the Building Sector T HE ENERGY POLICY OF THE EUROPEAN UNION Main objective of the EU energy policy : to ensure the availability of energy products on the market at an affordable price, whilst respecting environmental concerns and looking towards sustainable development. Energy supply & renewable energy sources (RES): The EU target is the fulfilment of 12% RES-share in the overall energy production by 2010. At present, 40% of the energy consumption within the EU corresponds to the residential sector. Buildings should therefore meet minimum energy performance requirements. Intelligent Energy – Europe is an EU programme for the promotion of energy efficiency and renewable energy sources.

5. Department of Electromechanical Engineering UNIVERSITY OF BURGOS, SPAIN RESINBUIL: International Project for the Introduction of Renewable Energies in the Building Sector This objective will be achieved by means of a three pronged strategy: NEW AND CONCRETE MARKET NEW AND CONCRETE MARKET PROMOTION ACTIONS PROMOTION ACTIONS TRAINING ACTIONS TRAINING ACTIONS Granted project of the Intelligent Energy – Europe Programme Promotion of the use and installation of Small Scale Renewable Energy Sources applications in Buildings, mainly solar and biomass energy. T HE RESINBUIL PROJECT: MAIN GOAL
