The new LIFE call again supports the creation or replication of One-Stop Shops (OSS), offering integrated services for clean energy transition in private residential buildings.
On 27 May 2025, The Belgian Peers, an associated network of EU Peers, was launched during a half-day event in Zaventem, close to Brussels. Hosted by Buildwise, a Belgian innovation center for construction, the event attracted around 50 participants willing to be part of the historic moment. In several workshop rounds topics like innovative financing solutions to promote through One-Stop Shops (OSS), cooperation with the building sector, and effective renovation advice were addressed. 
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.
Impala Projects and Ikaro Construction, two private companies founded by Anibal Perez Lopez in Tenerife, Canary Islands, offer Integrated Home Renovation Services to urban families, tourist property owners but also vulnerable homeowners in peripheral neighbourhoods. Their model is not only about business. It is responding to urgent societal and territorial needs.
On the 19 th of March 2025, the EU Peers Community in Spain held its fifth meeting, marking the second in-person gathering of the community. This time, the event took place in Madrid and began by celebrating an important milestone: the community now has over 40 members in Spain and more than 250 across Europe.
The EU Support Service for Citizen-Led Renovation (CLR) has launched a new call for enablers, offering funding to five additional organizations to support citizen-driven energy renovation projects across Europe. This initiative empowers local energy communities, one-stop shops, and public authorities to take the lead in scaling up sustainable home renovations.
Renochats are interviews of approximately one hour with a specialist or a respected player in the sector, presented in a "conversation" format to open the door to the best knowledge and know-how of renovation accessible to as many people as possible. Each Renochat is registered in the expert’s language and subtitled in English.
