On each site up to 10 show houses can be visited. After the 4-weeks Exhibitions, the houses will be occupied by the purchasers. In total, ten-thousands of visitors are expected at the building exhibitions:
Thousands of prospective home buyers, architects, engineers, promoters, investors, politicians will be motivated by the extensive advertising campaign, PR and the wide-ranging events to view the exhibition. So, REBECEE will provide about five cases of ”good practice” which can be used in the future as examples to raise the confidence of potential decision-makers, experts, promoters, investors and end users.
Additionally, three other cities - Sofia (BG), Riga (LV), Vilnius (LT) - take part as the observers in the project and will be enabled to implement similar RES H/C projects in their regions.

This project will be based on the know-how transfer from previous similar exhibitions and training campaigns of European Solar Building Exhibitions (2002-2005). It will also promote the information on the markets for low-energy housing and RES H/C applications in Europe and facilitate development of new businesses in the participating countries. The emphasis of a market orientation approach in the overall concepts of the exhibition should considerably improve the likelihood of sales of the passive-solar houses.
In more then 200 practical orientated workshops for city planners, architects, engineers and craftsmen will be hold to inform them about RE, sustainable development and economical possibilities in the forward-looking business.
REBECEE implements RE technologies and system solutions regarding their compatibility with national and international standards. The intention of all parties involved should be the further development on this basis and to facilitate the practical implementation of new technologies and systems.

The project will accelerate the state of the art regarding:

• decentralized renewable energy generation
• combination of different energy generation systems
• energy-efficient redevelopment of buildings
• planning and building energy-efficient new houses
• reaching high technical standards by using quality management systems

The results from technical implementation and socio-economic analyses of the REBECEE project will support future development and implementation of local energy policy by providing well documented
field test experiences.
