With its almost 700,000 inhabitants, Oslo capital of Norway has a vision: to be a smart, sustainable and inclusive city that thrives in all aspects: social, economic, and environmental. One important measure to minimize the city’s climate impact is to renovate buildings when possible, instead of demolishing them and building new ones with modern energy and accessibility standards.
