Capitalisation As A Vehicle For Green And Circular Business Development
This report offers a comprehensive assessment of capitalisation methodologies employed in the field of green and circular business within the Mediterranean region, alongside their anticipated outcomes. It offers profound
insights into the role of green and circular businesses, underlining the importance of capitalisation. The report provides an in-depth analysis of the capitalisation methodology adopted by the RESET Project, alongside other capitalisation project methodologies within the MED, serving as case studies to evaluate enabling factors and challenges for future capitalisation endeavours. Finally, the report provides strategic recommendations for the design and implementation of capitalisation projects.

RESET GUIDEBOOK OF PROJECT OUTPUTS
RESET focused on identifying, gathering, analysing and synthesising knowledge regarding how to best support
sustainable and green entrepreneurs and start-ups.
Throughout the process, RESET adopted a Capitalisation Framework aiming to define the methodology needed to
achieve the above-mentioned objective.
The Capitalisation Framework included the following questions:
1. Where is the knowledge?
2. What is the knowledge?
3. What knowledge is needed?
4. How to use the knowledge?
This Guidebook demonstrates how RESET responded to these questions through the various activities conducted
throughout the project
MAIA TAQA Detailed design of the pilot project - Amman
The MAIA-TAQA project focuses on developing and defining a range of innovative services in the field of resource efficiency (RE), by setting up demonstrators in 3 Mediterranean pilot areas, in Lebanon, Egypt, and Jordan. This report illustrates a pilot project implemented in Jordan with the aim of improving and upgrading the provision of power at the Jordan Chamber of Commerce (JOCC) main building in Amman by installing a Building Integrated Photovoltaic System (BIPV).
Introduction to Energy Performance Contracting (EPC)
Energy Performance Contracting (EPC) is a financing mechanism used to support energy efficiency measures and renewable energy installations without worrying about financial barriers. In an EPC contract, the energy service company (ESCO) is committed to provide guaranteed energy improvements to the customer’s territory while the finances are covered from the achieved energy savings.
Download this brochure if you want to know more about EPCs: What they are, main advantages, models, how BIM can facilitate EPCs, essential parameters (payback time, return of investment), and much more.
BEEP video story: How to develop an Energy Efficient Heritage Building Information Model (EE-HBIM)
BEEP project aimed at strengthening the use of Building Information Modelling (BIM) to enhance energy efficiency in buildings. The testing of this emerging technology on built heritage was performed to demonstrate its scalability to the entire building stock. The project provided public administrations with a powerful method for the energy rehabilitation of public buildings to be supported with private funds through the Energy Performance Contracting. The project main was an innovative methodology based on the integration of emerging technologies tested on 9 heritage public buildings located in Italy, Spain, Cyprus, Jordan, Palestine, Lebanon, and Egypt.
BEEP Guide (extended version): How to develop an Energy Efficient Heritage Building Information Model (EE-HBIM)
This guidelines’ document aims to enhance the capacity of public local administrations to design, and realise innovative energy and environmental improvement on historic public buildings, through a multidisciplinary and integrated digital approach (using Building Information Modelling and performance-based design to develop an Energy Efficient Heritage Building Information Model - EE-HBIM). The guideline is based on the testing of this emerging technology on built heritage in eight different EU and non EU Mediterranean countries to demonstrate its scalability to the entire building stock of the Med area. The project will provide public administrations with a powerful method for the energy rehabilitation of public buildings to be supported with private funds through the Energy Performance Contracting (EPC).
BEEP Guide: How to develop an Energy Efficient Heritage Building Information Model (EE-HBIM)
This technical guideline proposes a methodology for the energy audit of a historical building to support its energy and environmental improvement, from the analyses to the design stage up to the implementation, using Energy Performance Contracting (EPC) to attract funding. Each section of the guideline can also be used as a technical specification for tender activities.
The MedArtSal Operational plan and guidelines for policy development
This document illustrates an Operational Plan for the development of policies for the sustainable management of Mediterranean artisanal salinas, from an Ecosystem-Based Management perspective. The purpose of the document is to develop different strategic lines that improve the sustainability of the salinas. The plan's objectives include utilising a sustainability model and identifying constraints and opportunities for implementing the model. A specific sub-operational plan has been discussed for the four MedArtSal partner countries (Lebanon, Tunisia, Italy and Spain) highlighting the primary challenges faced by artisanal salt producers in keeping salt pans in operation in a profitable and sustainable manner, as well as the potential solutions and opportunities.
