Abstract
This report explores how sustainability can be integrated into the restoration of listed and historical buildings, with a particular focus on the legal, technical, and economic frameworks that shape renovation practices in Denmark. In an era where the built cultural heritage faces increasing demands for CO₂ reduction and energy efficiency, striking a balance between preservation and sustainability has become a central challenge. The study is based on a combination of qualitative interviews, a questionnaire survey, as well as a systematic review of academic literature and legal documents. Using case-based empirical data, particularly the “Børsen” restoration project in Copenhagen, the report identifies structural barriers such as regulatory constraints, the lack of financial incentives, and insufficient knowledge sharing between stakeholders. The findings suggest that flexible legislation, targeted financial support schemes, and the use of reversible energy retrofitting strategies are crucial for promoting a more sustainable approach to historic building restoration. The report concludes that an interdisciplinary and holistic effort is essential to ensure that heritage buildings meet today’s climate and societal expectations.
