Scaling Circular and Low-Carbon Renovation Across Europe
Join us on 26 June 2026 in Lille for a day dedicated to bio-based solutions that are reshaping building renovation.
Organised as part of the Circular Reno project (Interreg NWE programme), this event will bring together European partners, experts and field practitioners around a shared objective: accelerating the roll-out of sustainable energy renovation solutions based on bio-based materials, recycling and the reuse of resources.

Structured around a morning conference session and an afternoon of site visits (including the pilot project and a prefabricated solutions supplier), this final project event will be an opportunity to discover the project’s results, share perspectives on scaling up, and connect with the wider ecosystem.
