Across Europe, 34 million people are affected by energy poverty struggling to heat their homes in winter or cool them in summer. With 75% of the EU building stock still energy inefficient, the need for accessible renovation support has never been greater. One-stop shops are uniquely positioned to bridge this gap. This Learning Lab equips OSS practitioners with practical, replicable approaches to identify, reach and support energy-poor households from outreach strategies to financing mechanisms to tailored renovation roadmaps.
