SVAP Next generation solar active facade element Solar ventilation air preheater SVAP

Coordinator: UAB SAULES VEJO ARUODAI (LT)

Buildings are responsible for 40% of the energy consumption and 36% of CO2 emissions in the EU. According to Directive2010/31/EU, all new buildings in the EU should be nearly zero-energy buildings (NZEB) by the end of 2020. The amount ofthe solar energy that is not collected from the facades contributes to CO¬2 emissions and the use of fossil fuel that couldotherwise be avoided. Collecting solar energy from facades is a new and necessary trend in NZEB facades.As a result of our R&D efforts, Saulės vėjo aruodai (SVA) has developed the patented Solar Ventilation Air Preheater(SVAP). SVAP heat e…

About Horizon 2020 (2014–2020)

Horizon 2020 was the EU's flagship research and innovation programme for 2014–2020, with a budget of around €77 billion. It bundled FP7's strands with the EIT and the Competitiveness and Innovation Programme, introduced a stronger societal-challenge orientation, and pushed the funding logic toward closer-to-market innovation. New calls closed in 2020 but funded projects continued through 2024.

Co-funding: the European Union contributes €50k toward a total project budget of €71k — a funding rate of 70%, with the remainder covered by the consortium partners. The project runs over approximately 0.5 years from 2017-04-01 to 2017-09-30.
