Among the many projects funded by the EU's Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF), one area has taken on particular significance in the wake of the scorching summer Europeans have just experienced: improving the energy efficiency of school buildings. In Belgium's Francophone community government, for example, 149 school sites have been selected for renovation, including the _Athénée royal de Ganshoren_.
