Italian Community of Practice

Despite the undeniable benefits of deep home renovations—lower emissions, better health, improved comfort—the pace of adoption remains far too slow. Financial barriers, lack of trust, and fragmented governance continue to hinder progress. The recent EU Peers policy paper sheds light on how to turn this around: by promoting innovative financing, leveraging Integrated Home Renovation Services (IHRS), and establishing supportive policy frameworks that make renovations accessible and impactful. These recommendations form a practical and scalable strategy to turn energy efficiency into the new norm—across all income levels and housing types.

On 9 May, Energiaklub organised the fifth Hungarian EU Peers community meeting, bringing together 14 professionals from across the one-stop shop (OSS) ecosystem. Participants included providers focused on single-family and multi-apartment buildings, as well as organisations supporting OSSs through finance, research, and international projects.

From the 24th to the 26th of June, thousands of actors in the field of energy transition will gather in Strasbourg for the 26th edition of the Assises Européennes de la Transition Énergétique. On this occasion, EU Peers had been chosen to lead a one-hour workshop discussing the solutions offered by European cooperation for One-Stop Shops. The workshop will take place from 10:00 to 11:00 CET on June 25th at the Palais de la Musique et des Congrès of Strasbourg.
