REDay2022 High-Level Conference - Eyes on the Horizon
The REDay2022 High-level Conference took place in the European Parliament co-hosted by the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) Rapporteur Ciarán Cuffe (Greens/EFA, Ireland) and was also streamed online on the 27th of October.
The event was divided in two sessions. The first focused on the ongoing EPBD recast and the importance that a tool such as Minimum Energy Performance Standards (MEPS) play. The second took a look on how we can finance the Renovation Wave, both through public funds-based mechanisms, as well as private capital and bank schemes.

Dr. Stephen Richardson (World Green Building Council Europe) on the need of MEPS in the EPBD.
🗣️ Dr. Stephen Richardson - Director for World Green Building Council Europe:
"We need an #EPBD that sets out ambitious #MEPS for #buildings alongside long term national #renovation plans. Without this, the #EUGreenDeal, a climate neutral Europe, are just a pipe dream".

One-Stop-Shops: Maximising Their Potential to Accelerate Energy Renovation
The Renovate Europe Campaign hosted the webinar “One-Stop-Shops: Maximising Their Potential to Accelerate Energy Renovation” on Monday 21 March 2022 (11:30-12:50 CET) via GoToWebinar.
In a context of rising energy prices and a spiralling climate crisis, reducing the energy demand of Europe’s leaky buildings is a priority. Technical assistance provided by One-Stop-Shops (OSS) has long been advocated as part of the solution to accelerating building energy renovation in the EU. Maximising their potential will be crucial if we are to boost the deep renovation of the EU building stock in order to increase our energy security and cut households’ energy bills.
One-stop-shops also have an important role to play in supporting the introduction of Minimum Energy Performance Standards (MEPS) in the Buildings Directive (EPBD) and in driving the take-up of renovation measures implemented through the National Recovery and Resilience Plans, Cohesion and other EU funding as well as public programmes.
In this webinar, the Hungarian, Irish, Latvian and Polish National Partners of the Renovate Europe Campaign together with a representative from the City of Warsaw will present their experience with one-stop-shops in their country. At the same time, Adrien Bullier from the Commission’s CINEA will provide insight into why and how we need to upscale OSS with the aim of boosting the rate and depth of energy renovation in the EU.

Webinar: Why and How is Technical Assistance the Wealth-enabler for buildings?
Renovate Europe co-organised the webinar "Why and How is Technical Assistance the Wealth-enabler for buildings?”, which took place on Tuesday 28 September 2021 (10:30-11:50 CET) via GoToWebinar.
Historic amounts of funding will be made available through the EU budget (RRF and MFF), and the main buildings-related legislation (EED and EPBD) will be strengthened to deliver on the Renovation Wave goals. Unfortunately, the crucial role of Technical Assistance in delivering renovation schemes is still vastly underestimated.
Technical assistance or capacity building will be crucial in transforming EU objectives into tangible renovation schemes on the ground, and could significantly improve the absorption rates of EU funding across the Member States. It will also be essential in ensuring that renovations schemes are made accessible for the vulnerable.
This webinar, co-organised by Renovate Europe, FEDARENE and Energy Cities, was the opportunity to better understand the importance of technical assistance, through learnings from ongoing programmes but also through examples of funding opportunities, so renovation schemes can deliver better results for citizens, businesses, and the environment. -
