The LIFE REPowerEU platform meeting will take place on 14 and 15 May, gathering EU funded projects to share best practices, innovative solutions and lessons learnt.
Decarbonising the heating and cooling sector is central to achieving the energy transition. This is recognised in the European Green Deal and the ‘Fit for 55’ package, as without increasing the share of renewables in this sector, our energy and climate targets cannot be achieved cost-effectively. Within the heating sector, district heating is proving particularly […]
The IEA's 9th Annual Global Conference on Energy Efficiency will bring together global leaders in government, business and civil society – from across every continent – to accelerate policy action on energy efficiency. The 9th Global Conference is co-hosted by IEA Executive Director Fatih Birol and Kenya’s Minister of Energy and Petroleum Davis Chirchir, and […]
The clock is ticking before the next European elections and the first quarter of 2024 was an incredibly busy period for the European institutions…and for Energy Cities policy team! Join us to learn from the most recent legislative developments for the building sector. Our policy team will discuss the revised Energy Performance of Building Directive, […]
The four Horizon 2020 funded projects crossCert, EPC RECAST, EUB SuperHub and iBRoad2EPC, each unique with its own perspective on the issue of Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs), will present their insights and outcomes and discuss with their peers during four sessions as follows:
The European Commission identifies buildings in the EU as the primary energy consumer, accounting for 40% of our energy consumption and 36% of greenhouse gas emissions. In December 2021, the European Commission adopted a legislative proposal to revise the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive, as part of the so-called ‘Fit for 55’ package. In March, […]
The session aims to shed light on success stories from cities and municipalities across Europe, which have deployed or modernised district heating and cooling networks, to accelerate their heating and cooling transition and phase out fossil fuels. Drawing from relevant EU projects like the Celsius initiative, the session will showcase examples of successful transitions. Furthermore, […]
Heating and cooling accounts for around half of the energy consumed in the European Union. Despite significant measures to reduce demand, residential, tertiary and industrial buildings still need heat and cold. Greater flexibility through energy system integration and the deployment of renewables and waste heat in District Heating and Cooling (DHC) networks will contribute to […]

Join us for the online launch of our research report, Fahrenheit 2040: heating and cooling in the EU. The report considers the outlook for heating and cooling decarbonisation based on the Öko-Institut’s assessment of the current EU policy framework. The event will include a presentation of our findings and a discussion on further action needed to […]
