▪ We discovered hundreds of thousands of private buildings and
thousands of schools with outdated heating systems
▪ Using our energy simulation platform Rivalue, which is capable of
collecting data about energy class and energy saving potential for
individual buildings, we calculated great potential for CO₂ reduction
