Their core work

AMSolutions is a Greek technology SME based in Heraklion, Crete, specializing in advanced building renovation and energy efficiency solutions. Their core work centers on developing and integrating prefabricated components, insulation systems, and renewable energy technologies for transforming existing buildings into near-zero energy buildings (NZEB). They contribute technical expertise in modular retrofit systems, façade engineering, and thermal insulation — including advanced materials like bio-aerogel and vacuum insulation panels — across both residential and non-residential building sectors.

What they specialise in

How they've shifted over time

AMSolutions entered H2020 in 2016 with projects on construction materials — prefabricated waste-material components (InnoWEE) and sustainable concrete (EnDurCrete). From 2019 onward, their focus shifted decisively toward integrated building energy systems: façade-level renewable energy, advanced insulation (VIP, bio-aerogel), and full NZEB retrofit solutions. The trajectory shows a clear move from individual building materials toward complete, modular renovation systems that combine insulation, energy generation, and storage.

AMSolutions is moving toward integrated, plug-and-play building renovation packages that combine prefabrication, advanced insulation, and on-site renewables — positioning them well for Europe's accelerating building decarbonization wave.

How they like to work

AMSolutions operates exclusively as a consortium participant, never as coordinator, suggesting they bring specialized technical contributions rather than project management capacity. With 64 unique partners across 19 countries from just 5 projects, they work in large European consortia and are comfortable integrating into diverse, multinational teams. Their consistent participation in Innovation Actions (3 of 5 projects) indicates they focus on near-market technology demonstration rather than fundamental research.

Broad European network spanning 64 partners across 19 countries, built through 5 large consortia. For a small Greek SME, this reach is notably wide, reflecting active engagement in major EU building renovation initiatives.

What sets them apart

AMSolutions combines materials science knowledge (from waste-material components to bio-aerogels and vacuum insulation) with systems integration for building renovation — a rare combination in a small company. Their Crete base gives them direct experience with Mediterranean climate retrofit challenges, relevant for southern European renovation markets. With EUR 2M+ in H2020 funding across five energy-related projects, they have accumulated deep domain knowledge in modular NZEB retrofit that few SMEs of similar size can match.

Highlights from their portfolio

• PLURAL
  Largest single grant (EUR 680K) — develops plug-and-use lightweight renovation systems with adaptive control and predictive monitoring, representing their most advanced integration work.
• POWERSKIN PLUS
  Showcases their full capability range: modular insulation, solar energy, thermal storage, and VIP technology integrated into non-residential building façades.
• Surefit
  Brings together bio-aerogel insulation with solar energy for residential retrofit — their most advanced materials work combined with NZEB targets.
