Abstract
In many EU countries, the existing private condominium buildings represent an important energy problem to the attainment of the EU energy objectives for 2020 and beyond. 41.7% of EU population lives in flats that are responsible for 68% of total energy use in buildings. Deep renovation of residential private buildings is, therefore, a paramount and critical issue for the achievement of the EU targets for building stocks. Where property is fragmented among many small owners, like in condominiums, the decision process is the major obstacle to the uptake of an adequate deep renovation. In “Sharing Cities”, a project granted by H2020 program under smart cities and communities initiatives, this barrier has been overcome through an innovative methodology based on citizens’ participation and the collaboration between public and private sector. This paper describes the methodology and reports the last results to-date for the lighthouse city of Milan.

Acknowledgments
The study was developed within the framework of the project SHAR-LLM, which has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under grant agreement no. 691895.
The design and co-design activities (including energy audit and simulations, retrofitting measures and financial budget and tools) have been promoted and led by TEICOS as part of the Sharing Cities project. Energy audits, simulations and design activities have been implemented by TEICOS. The co-design methodology was developed by the Department of Architecture and Urban Studies (Dastu) of the Politecnico di Milano with TEICOS and the contributions of Legambiente and Poliedra. The workshops and engagement activities have been organized and carried out by TEICOS with Legambiente, Dastu, Poliedra and supported and hosted by the Municipality of Milan and the local Municipality 4. The monitoring system was designed and installed by Future Energy and TEICOS with the support of the Department of Energy of the Politecnico di Milano that also carried out the data analysis.
