The Concerted Action for the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) is an initiative supported by the European Commission aimed at fostering collaboration and knowledge exchange among EU member states to ensure the effective implementation of the directive.

Revised in 2023, the EPBD holds significant relevance, especially for one-stop shops for residential energy renovation. Article 18 promotes and supports the establishment of one-stop shops to accelerate energy renovation in buildings. In addition, the article addresses the need for accessible renovation services. The member states have two years to transpose the EPBD into national law and thus make it directly effective in the individual countries. The Concerted Action EPBD is organising regular plenary meetings for EU Member States’ experts to discuss and share experiences on the directive and its implementation.

EU Peers is invited to present the Community of practice and its added-value in the current context of the transposition at the next plenary meeting of the CA EPBD in November in Lisbon. As a unique platform for exchange and learning, EU Peers brings together practitioners and supporters who already have valuable experience with the one-stop shop approach to simplify and accelerate energy renovation of residential buildings. Consequently, their knowledge can only enrich the upcoming EPBD transposition. Sharing this knowledge is a core mission of EU Peers.

We are happy to present the potential of the Community of practice and share our experiences on 20-21 November in Lisbon!

During the two-day gathering in Budapest, organised by Energiaklub Climate Policy Institute and held at the headquarters of Velux Hungary on Andrássy Avenue (which was awarded the title of Office of the Year), the partners had the opportunity to coordinate national and European developments supporting one-stop shops.
The Hungarian EU Peers Community, comprised of 14 active members including six one-stop shop (OSS) providers, eight OSS supporters, and three additional participating companies, is addressing the pressing challenges in Hungary’s home renovation sector. With three meetings held so far—one in person and two online—the group is focused on advancing energy-efficient renovations through collaboration, advocacy, and practical solutions.
