Business models for nZEB renovation of small wooden buildings
To achieve a sustainable building stock, it is necessary to focus on existing as well as new buildings. New houses built according to the Norwegian building code are close to nZEB (near Zero-Energy Building) level, but existing buildings contribute a significant share of the energy consumption, and the difference between new and older houses is increasing. As the renovation rate is low, it is important to include ambitious energy upgrading once a renovation project is undertaken. So far, however, there is almost no market for nZEB renovation of small wooden buildings. These buildings are challenging to renovate, and even more challenging to do so with ambitious climate targets. In effect, only half of the renovations in Norway include energy renovation. The demand for ambitious renovation depends on a value proposition that is understood by the customer. Novel and well-designed business models can be central tools for achieving this. In this paper, existing and potential business models for renovation of wooden housing are identified and analysed. ; publishedVersion
