The New EPBD: A New Standard for a More Sustainable Future

It has been 22 years since the first Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) came into force. Two decades in which climate change has gone from being an abstract concept on panels of experts to something as tangible as sweat in March due to 35ºC, knee-deep water in the living room after torrential rains to pay 10€ for a litre of olive oil produced in an ever-dry countryside. Also, in the last twenty years, climate change and sustainability in general have gained space in the public and political agenda.

One-Stop Shops (OSS) aim to make home renovation simple and attractive. But how can they themselves draw attention to their offers in a convincing way? The theme of the EU Peers Transnational Community SPRING‘25 meeting is “OSS promotional campaigning”. We collect ideas and cool formats on how to onboard citizens and learn together what is possible (and attractive!). We will have the Energiecentrale Gent and [potentially EOS: RenovAcción] as guests, and also invite participants to share their inspirations. Bring good ones! The Transnational Community meetings are free of charge and open to anyone interested in OSS! You can also suggest topics for the next meeting, which will be voted on by the EU Peers members. Aso, we will share the latest EU Peers developments. Looking forward to meeting you!
