Unit C4 : Energy Efficiency : Buildings and Products
At least a 32% share of renewables in final energy consumption
At least 32,5% energy savings compared with the business-as-usual scenario
Policy framework for 2030: ambitious climate and energy targets
Minimum 40% cut in greenhouse gas emissions compared to 1990 levels
2
Green Deal: at least 50% CO2 reduction by 2030 and climate neutrality by 2050.
Improve energy performance of buildings, increase renovation rates, Generate needed socio-economic and technology breakthroughs, Ensure consistency of policy, enabling actions, and R&I
Vision for 2050: achieving net-zero GHG emissions, including highly energy efficient and
decarbonized EU building stocks
A solid framework for 2030 and 2050
CLEAN ENERGY FOR ALL EUROPEANS
Buildings responsible for 40% of energy consumption and 36% of
GHG emissions in EU
Buildings to contribute significantly to GHG emission
reductions of around 90% compared to 1990 by 2050
75% of the housing stock is energy inefficient
Construction rates / worse economic conditions
• low demolition rates (0.1-0.2% per year)
• limited new construction activities (0.4-1.1% per year)
• very low refurbishment rates (0.4-1.2% per year)
• structural
• market failures
• regulatory failures
Problems and drivers
EU building sector
CLEAN ENERGY FOR ALL EUROPEANS
Stronger long term renovation strategies for Member States, aiming at decarbonisation by 2050 and with a solid financial component.
Targeted support to e-mobility infrastructure deployment.
Higher thresholds for inspections of heating and air conditioning systems
An optional Smart Readiness Indicator for buildings
Reinforcement of building automation
Enhanced transparency of national building energy performance calculation methodologies
Supportive of building
renovation by linking policy and financing
Smart
by ensuring the use of ICT and
modern technologies
EPBD – main outcomes of the revised Directive
CLEAN ENERGY FOR ALL EUROPEANS
Long term renovation strategies (new Article 2a)
• Establish comprehensive strategies aiming at a
• A highly efficient and decarbonised building stock by 2050
• Cost-effective transformation of existing buildings into nearly
zero-energy buildings.
Roadmap with measures, measurable progress indicators and
indicative milestones for 2030, 2040 and 2050.
• Carry out a public consultation on the strategies prior to submission
to COM
• Monitor and consult on implementation

MOBILISING INVESTMENT – Article 2a (3)
To support the mobilisation of investments into the renovation needed,
Member States are to facilitate access to mechanisms for:
a) Aggregation of projects
b) Reduction of perceived risk of EE operations
c) Public funding
d) Guiding investments into EE public building stock (in line with Eurostat
guidance)
e) Advisory tools (one-stop shops, energy advisory services)
FINANCIAL MEASURES LINKED TO SAVINGS – Article 10(6)
Member States are to link their financial measures for energy efficiency
improvements to targeted or achieved energy savings

CLEAN ENERGY FOR ALL EUROPEANS
Directive 2010/31/EUEPBDLong Term Renovation Strategies (LTRS)
Regulation(EU) 2018/1999Governance RegulationNational energy and climate plans (NECP)
LTRS part of National energy and climate plans
first Long Term Renovation Strategy, to be submitted by 10 March 2020, transposition deadline for Directive (EU) 2018/844 (the amending directive).
Draft NECP – 31 Dec. 2018
Final NECP – 31 Dec. 2019
Draft and Final National energy and climate plans include:
• Indicative milestones • Domestically established measurable
progress indicators• Evidence-based estimate of expected
energy savings and wider benefits • Contributions to Union's energy
efficiency targets.
Long-term renovation strategies & NECPs
CLEAN ENERGY FOR ALL EUROPEANS
Quantitative or qualitative objectives
Based on national specificities
NOT sectoral targets for the building sector
NOT binding targets (however, MS may decide to go beyond EPBD and set binding milestones)
Clear milestones reduce investor risks and uncertainties and engage stakeholders and business.
• (non-exhaustive) Examples: Energy savings (in absolute and relative % terms);
Renovated buildings / renovated m2 (for different types or public buildings);
% /Number/m2 of NZEBs (for different types or public buildings);
% Reduction of emissions in the building sector;
% Reduction of people affected by energy poverty;
% Reduction of buildings in lowest energy class;
Energy savings in public buildings;
% of buildings equipped with BEMs or similar smart systems;
One-stop shop initiatives in place
Indicative milestones for LTRS
