RENOLUTION

launch of logistics workshop

There are only a few days left to register for the launch event of the RENOLUTION logistics workshop! What does it involve?

To reduce greenhouse gas emissions while improving living comfort and reducing energy costs for the people of Brussels, the Brussels-Capital Region has launched RENOLUTION, a regional building renovation strategy. Its objective is to achieve an average energy performance level of 100 kWh/m²/year for all Brussels housing by 2050, i.e. average consumption divided by 3 compared to the current situation! A real energy revolution has been launched.

RENOLUTION's "Logistics" workshop is part of the working group dedicated to local production and logistics of the "Shifting Economy" regional economic transition strategy. This workshop deals with issues related to the infrastructure for hosting companies (storage spaces, small workshops, logistics hubs, consolidation centres for Brussels companies, etc.) so they can be adapted to the construction and renovation sector.

It also deals with mobility issues related to the transportation of construction elements, as transport is expected to grow with the expected increase in the number of construction sites.

Brussels Economy and Employment, as the driver of the RENOLUTION logistics workshop, is pleased to invite you to the launch of the "Logistics" workshop on 31/01/2023 from 8.45am to 1.30pm at BEL Brussels (Brussels Environment, Tour et Taxis, Avenue du Port 86c, B-1000 Brussels).
