Full-building retrofit — insulation, HVAC, solar, and more — funded and built. Enershades scans a building, plans the retrofit, matches every subsidy it qualifies for, and hands the job to a vetted local contractor — one platform instead of four consultants.
Most tools stop at the report. Enershades is built to close the loop between knowing a building needs work and the work actually being paid for and done.
An address, a BIM file, or a thermal scan is enough. Enershades combines cadastral, thermal, and satellite data into an energy diagnosis and a prioritized retrofit plan, scored against Spain's official CEE rating scale.
Enershades checks the plan against every programme it qualifies for — PREE, PRTR Next Generation, and each region's own rules — and pre-fills the paperwork instead of leaving it to a consultant.
The finished plan is routed to a vetted local contractor for quoting and execution. Enershades earns a placement fee — the owner never pays for the diagnosis or the matching.
Spain has among the oldest housing stock in the EU and real money already allocated to fix it. What's missing isn't funding or technology — it's the layer that connects a specific building to the specific programme it qualifies for, in a system where every region writes its own rules.
The retrofit-tech space isn't empty — but most tools stop at insight. Enershades is the layer that turns a diagnosis into a funded, contracted job.
| Platform | What it does | What it doesn't do |
|---|---|---|
| Operational digital twins | Optimize HVAC and energy use in real time using live building data. | No retrofit planning, no subsidy matching — assumes the building is already efficient. |
| ESG / BIM reporting tools | Score a building's sustainability for compliance and reporting. | Stops at the report. Doesn't fund or execute anything. |
| Energy management SaaS | Monitor consumption for large corporate or public buildings. | Built for facility managers, not for planning a one-time renovation. |
| Enershades | Diagnoses the building, matches it to every subsidy it qualifies for across Spain's 17 regions, and routes the job to a contractor. | One platform end to end, instead of an auditor, a subsidy consultant, and a contractor search, separately. |
Enershades doesn't score sustainability on its own scale. Every recommendation is anchored to the standards a bank, an evaluator, or a subsidy programme already checks.
Every plan states the building's current and projected official energy rating — the same letter grade used on every Spanish property listing and mortgage file.
Plans flag whether the retrofit meets the EU Taxonomy's "substantial improvement" threshold — the test banks use to offer green mortgages.
Recommendations weigh the carbon cost of the materials against the energy saved, not just the resulting utility bill.
