HAUSBAU+ENERGIE 2026

HAUSBAU+ENERGIE 2026: Switzerland's Premier Hub for Sustainable Building & Energy Innovation

Set for November 5-8, 2026, at the Bernexpo exhibition center in Bern, Switzerland, HAUSBAU+ENERGIE stands as the country's leading trade fair dedicated to the future of building and energy. This premier event serves as an essential platform for industry professionals, policymakers, and innovators to explore the critical intersection of construction, energy efficiency, and sustainable living, all within the unique context of Switzerland's stringent environmental regulations and ambitious climate goals.

Core Focus: Building the Sustainable Future

HAUSBAU+ENERGIE 2026 will revolve around two interconnected pillars:

1. Modern Construction & Renovation (HAUSBAU): This sector showcases the latest advancements in building techniques, materials, and systems designed for energy efficiency, durability, and comfort. Expect exhibits on:
High-Performance Insulation & Facades: Solutions for minimizing heat loss and maximizing thermal mass.
Prefabricated & Timber Construction: Innovations in sustainable, fast, and precise building methods.
Smart Home & Building Automation: Integrated systems for optimizing energy use, security, and comfort.
Renovation & Modernization: Technologies and strategies for upgrading existing buildings to meet high energy standards (Minergie, etc.).
Sustainable Materials: Recycled, bio-based, and low-carbon construction materials.

2. Renewable Energy & Efficiency (ENERGIE): This pillar is crucial for Switzerland's energy transition, focusing on reducing reliance on fossil fuels and nuclear power. Highlights will include:
Advanced Heat Pumps: Next-generation air, water, and ground-source heat pumps for efficient heating/cooling.
Solar Power Integration: Innovations in photovoltaics (PV), building-integrated PV (BIPV), and solar thermal systems.
Energy Storage Solutions: Battery technologies (lithium-ion, flow batteries) and thermal storage for managing renewable energy supply.
Smart Grids & Digitalization: Systems for optimizing energy distribution, consumption patterns, and grid stability.
Renewable Heat Networks: District heating solutions utilizing geothermal, biomass, or waste heat.
Hydrogen & Future Fuels: Exploring the potential role of green hydrogen in heating and mobility.
