EBENTO co-creation digital platform

The European EBENTO project aims to develop an integrated digital platform to coordinate and manage energy performance contracts in the building and renovation sector, providing a one-stop shop that responds to the needs of all actors involved.

In order to incorporate the contributions of potential users from the beginning, a co-creation methodology is elaborated under the User Centred Design (UCD) approach, allowing the 4 pilot cities involved to replicate it in their context. The implementation of the methodology is structured in several formats, including focus groups with users/beneficiaries of the energy refurbishment to identify needs and define adapted solutions, and a multi-sector workshop that validates and prioritises EBENTO’s functionalities, establishing a roadmap for the development and improvement of the digital product.
