| Description | On April 12, 2024, the European Commission announced the final adoption of the revised Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD), marking a significant milestone in the EU’s efforts to reduce emissions, cut energy bills, and improve the quality of life for its citizens. As a key component of the European Green Deal, the directive sets ambitious targets to transform the energy efficiency of Europe’s building stock, which currently accounts for 40% of the EU’s energy consumption and 35% of its energy-related greenhouse gas emissions. |
