About the Project

The EU-funded CHRONICLE project has developed a holistic building performance assessment framework extending throughout all building phases. The project promotes the transformation of existing and new buildings into highly efficient and fully digitalised buildings of the future.

Digitalisation of the building sector is crucial to meet sustainability targets, for example by monitoring energy consumption and creating renovation scenarios, while ensuring adequate comfort for residents by considering environmental, technical, financial and social aspects.

The project started in July 2022 and finished in December 2025.

  • develop more cost-effective, long-term maintenance and renovation plans

They have been developed for:

  • Energy Service Companies
  • Architecture, Engineering & Construction professionals
  • Building Owners and Investors
  • Facility Managers
  • and an app for building residents

The CHRONICLE solutions also encompass two back-end components for the operation of the apps: Common Data Environment and Digital Twin Framework.
