This exclusive online meeting is aimed at briefing our members on the recently adopted Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD).

oPENLab partner BPIE will be presenting the project at the meeting.

The EPBD targets a fully decarbonised building stock by 2050, contributing directly to the EU’s energy and climate goals. The revised EPBD, alongside the increased ambitions from the REPowerEU initiative, has set a clear decarbonisation pathway.

Under the directive, new challenges and opportunities arise for the building and the district heating and cooling sector.

On Thursday 19 September from 10:00 to 11:00 members will discover what the EPBD implies for the district heating and cooling sector and the implementation pathway across various EU Member States.

This discussion will be led by Euroheat & Power and external guest speakers, with expertise in the topic:

  • Pauline Lucas, Policy Director, and András Takács, Senior Policy Advisor at Euroheat & Power
  • Johann Zirngibl, Board Director at EPB Center and Leader of REHVA’s EU Policy and Advocacy Group
  • Victoria Taranu, Senior Researcher at the Buildings Performance Institute Europe (BPIE)

If you are a member and did not receive the invitation via email, please do not hesitate to reach out to Carlos, our Policy Assistant, at ce@euroheat.org, who will be happy to assist you.
