SPHEERE

Accelerating Europe’s transition to a climate-neutral built environment by redefining how buildings are renovated.

SPHEERE revolutionizes building retrofits by combining digital prefabrication and circular design to deliver fast, scalable, and high-performance energy renovations that drive Europe’s climate resilience

How SPHEERE works

From design to climate-ready buildings, SPHEERE connects industrial innovation, digital planning and rapid installation into a seamless and scalable renovation system.

Step 1

Industrial desing

Industrialised, adaptable retrofit solutions tailored to building typologies and climates

Step 2

Digital & Industrial Integration

Design, manufacturing and planning connected by a digital backbone

Step 3

Offsite Prefabrication

Precision-built elements produced offsite to ensure quality and reduce on-site disruption

Step 4

Fast & Low-Impact Installation

Rapid on-site assembly with minimal disturbance to occupants and surroundings

Step 5

Monitoring & Circular Lifecycle

Continuous performance optimisation with lifecycle and circularity principles embedded

Demo sites

SPHEERE is implemented through a network of demo sites located in different European regions. Each site operates in a distinct territorial and socio economic context, contributing to the project’s shared objectives through real world experimentation and place based action.

Demo sites

Sykies, Greece

Humid subtropical climate

Validating system integration and cooling performance under warm climate conditions

Ruše, Slovenia

Cold climate

Validating deep retrofit solutions for affordable housing in cold climate conditions

Forua, Spain

Temperate climate (Biosphere Reserve)
