It’s out - the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive recast. We’ve all been waiting with bated breath for the central measure - Minimum #EnergyPerformance Standards - to kick-start the ‘Renovation Wave’.

MEPS are essential to increase stubbornly low renovation rate AND one of few measures that can direct renovations to worst-performing buildings, alleviating #energypoverty
MEPS start with worst performing but should not stop there. They set a plan to fully decarbonise by 2050

The MEPS has 2 parts. 2nd is important but may get lost. Requires MSs to set timelines for MEPS for all bldgs to meet higher energy perf. class by 2040 & 2050
Potentially powerful plan for whole stock! Key to an effective framework, esp. given the weakness of 1st part… 3/11

@EU_Commission will propose Minimum #EnergyPerformance Standards (#MEPS) this year as part of #EPBD revision. Our new paper “Next steps for MEPS” sets out how to do this. 1/9 bit.ly/34wyimc #RenovationWave #EUGreenDeal @Energy4Europe

The current rate and depth of renovation is far below what we need to reach the 2030 #ClimateTargets in #Fitfor55, and too many Europeans are living in inefficient homes and suffering #energypoverty 2/9
Current policies leave a gap when it comes to driving the #renovation of most existing buildings. MEPS can fill this gap. 3/9 #BuildingRenovation
