Do you want to give access to ambitious, high quality, safe and simple energy renovations to all your citizens? Do you want to boost your local economic growth? Do you want to implement local policies complying with EU and national energy and climate goals ? Open a One-Stop Shop for home energy renovation !

On 24 September , 2025, the Spanish EU Peers Community held its 6th meeting, which was attended by 30 different organizations. This was the first of a cycle of four meetings dedicated to analyzing the ten steps of the renovation process, according to the article Towards large-scale roll out of "integrated home renovation services" in Europe by Millin and Bullier. This session addressed the first three steps, focusing on how to activate the demand: information and marketing, detection and diagnosis, as well as the formulation of recommendations.

Establishing or improving a one-stop shop for sustainable home renovation can be quite a complex process - from aligning with EU and national climate goals, to tackling energy poverty, to building trust among homeowners. The EU Peers Mentoring Programme is here to make this journey faster, easier, and more impactful.

Can energy communities serve as a powerful trigger for deep renovations in multi-apartment buildings? A recent conversation between Ekubirojs, Renesco, Rēzekne municipality and representatives from Tartu suggests yes - but not without challenges.

To find out what one-stop shops (OSS) in Europe look like and what impact they have on renovation rates, the EU Peers Community conducted its first survey in 2024. We have highlighted ten key takeaways.

Report from the “Learn & Share” marketplace at the Climate Alliance International Annual Conference '25 in Cologne – EU Peers had an interactive booth (featuring LEGO®) on what OSS are, how they can ideally be, and what our Community can offer!

A moment between players that shows a sector that is united and committed to a fast- growing market, both qualitative and quantitative, which will benefit from the emergence of a financing structure dedicated to renovation and adaptation: FIDEO- Banque de la Rénovation Energétique.
