Each one links to its EU funding record and the partners it works with: a starting list for building a consortium.
Project results are expected to contribute to all of the following expected outcomes:
Meeting Europe’s ambition for the renovation of the housing stock requires innovative approaches that improve buildings’ energy performance and occupants’ satisfaction, at a reduced cost while speeding up the renovation process and minimising impact on the construction site and disturbance for occupants. Renovation approaches should cover the whole workflow from design, off-site manufacturing and on-site installation to strategies for maintenance, operation and end of life.
Proposals are expected to address all of the following:
Demonstrate the proposed approaches tailored to three multi-storey buildings (> 5-storeys), each in a different Member States or Associated Countries and covering different building categories (residential or non-residential). This topic implements the co-programmed European Partnership on ‘People-centric sustainable built environment’ (Built4People). As such, projects resulting from this topic will be expected to contribute to the objectives of Built4People, transfer knowledge to its network of innovation clusters[1] and report on results in support of the monitoring of the Built4People KPIs.

Applicants asked the EU 2 questions about this call and the EU published the answers. They clarify the call documents but do not replace them.
The topic text mentions that proposals are expected to ‘Demonstrate the proposed approaches tailored to three multi-storey buildings (> 5-storeys), each in a different Member States or Associated Countries and covering different building categories (residential or non-residential)’. This means that there have to be:
Applicants are free to choose their approach and their proposed building categories, and independent experts will evaluate if the building categories are of appropriate variety. Please bear in mind that we do not pre-check proposals or pre-check specific proposed approaches.

Only storeys at ground level or above count. Storeys below ground level (i.e. basements) do not count. Therefore, the ground floor counts as one (the first) storey. The topic text mentions multi-storey buildings that are > 5-storeys. This means that to fulfil the topic requirement of having more than 5 storeys, the multi-storey buildings of proposals should as a minimum have 6 above ground level storeys, for example ground floor and 5 floors above it.
