The Smarter story

Horizon 2020 funded, SMARTER initiative began in 2019 with the aim to promote the financing and building of green homes. The goal of the SMARTER initiative was to secure financial institutes and residential developers to create and launch a co-designed green mortgage product for new property acquisition. 17 organizations in 12 European countries came together to improve people’s quality of life, protect the environment and encourage financing of green projects through a multi-faceted plan.

​

As of November 2024, SMARTER has unlocked finance and green home certification for over 37,000 new homes across Europe. These homes represent a collective total project value of over 10,376,000,000 Euros! These numbers will continue to expand as our additional country partners have launched their program. The SMARTER initiative aims to drive change in the finance and green certification of new sustainable homes.
