The EU Buildings Climate Tracker is an index composed of a set of indicators. It is a response to the challenges of collecting and using data to monitor and assess decarbonisation progress in the EU building stock. Its starting point is the adoption of the Paris Agreement in 2015, while the objective is defined as climate neutrality by 2050. The Tracker serves as a benchmark and assessment tool for the status of decarbonisation progress in the European buildings sector and its progress towards climate neutrality by 2050. It provides evidence of the need for further action, which should be reflected in an ambitious outcome from the negotiations around the EPBD and the Fit-for-55 package. However, the Buildings Climate Tracker is not a tool for modelling the future: it rather documents the progress achieved since 2015 and puts it into perspective towards 2050, based on one scenario.

In this paper, Christophe Milin and Adrien Bullier from the European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency (CINEA) present a review of various initiatives that aim at developing integrated service offers for the energy renovation of private housing. After clarifying the concept of Integrated Home Renovation Services and positioning it in the current market offer related to home renovation, the paper analyses each step of the customer journey and illustrate how the user experience could be improved, based on local experiences. The authors propose an empirical typology identifying three main models: advice, support and implementation, and the provision of finance as an additional option and discuss how integrated home renovation services could be facilitated and rolled-out throughout the EU.

Boosting renovation with an innovative service for home-owners. BetterHome: An industry-driven one-stop-shop solution, subject of the BPIE Innovation Briefing. For building owners, the renovation process can be a hassle, shaped by the ambiguity of the measures to implement. Uncertainty is one of the reasons why the renovation rate continues to linger around 1% and private investments remain limited. Achieving the full market potential of renovation calls for a paradigm shift, where a more service-oriented supply-side together with a deeper awareness on the demand-side play key roles. The BetterHome case study shows how innovative business models can drive energy renovations across Europe.
