ComActivate
ComActivate focusses on solutions for multi-family apartment buildings to reduce energy poverty. One key concept in ComActivate is the Resource Center (RC). It is an institutional entity that promotes and supports energy efficient investments and community engagement on a local level, connects various stakeholders in the pursuit of this aim - the local municipality, NGOs, SMEs and the residents - and provides advice on matters of energy efficiency to a broad range of actors, most importantly to residents and housing managers. The study presents informative examples of Resource Centers.

Report on the replication potential in Germany
This study examines the possibilities of the replication of the comprehensive integrated home renovation service “Toulouse Métropole Rénov” with the specific preconditions in Hamburg and other German cities and regions. The identified obstacles in the development of OSS in Germany will be examined to see if approaches from the Toulouse model can help overcome them and thus offer a more comprehensive range of support for property owners' modernisation projects. The lessons learned from Toulouse and a study of the German one-stop-shop landscape will be used to formulate recommendations for the setup or expansion of one-stop-shops in German regions and cities.
Report on external evaluation of the service
