How to Use This Programme

What you will learn

The programme is structured into five modules, each covering one pillar of energy-efficient renovation in public buildings:

1. Introduction to Energy Efficiency — why energy-efficient renovation matters, and the Turkish and international policy context.
2. Building Renovation Passport (BRP) Model — how a BRP works, what it contains, and how it helps plan long-term renovations.
3. Innovative Renovation Techniques — cost-effective solutions for envelopes, HVAC systems, and renewable energy integration.
4. EPCs and Financing Mechanisms — how Energy Performance Contracts and public-sector financing unlock renovation projects.
5. Occupant Behaviour and Energy Savings — how daily practices in public buildings shape energy consumption and comfort.

How each module is organised

Every module contains the same five items, in order:

• A 10–15 minute video lecture with Turkish and English subtitles.
• A slide presentation you can download.
• One or more infographics summarising the key ideas visually.
• A downloadable PDF summary for offline reading.
• A short self-assessment quiz (5–10 multiple choice questions).

Each module takes approximately 30–45 minutes to complete. You can progress module by module, or jump to the topic that interests you most.
