The Energy Poverty Observatory (EPOV) provides data, resources, and insights into energy poverty across Europe. It aims to assist policymakers, researchers, and stakeholders in understanding the scope and nature of energy poverty. EPOV includes a collection of data, reports, and case studies—best practices and policies to combat energy poverty and enhance energy access for vulnerable populations.

Introduction on the tool providing solar radiation data, photovoltaic performance analysis, and mapping to support solar energy planning across Europe and beyond.

An extensive resource offering data on building characteristics, energy performance, and renovation activities across Europe to support informed energy efficiency decisions.

Data and tools for evaluating solar radiation and photovoltaic system performance across different regions, supporting the planning and optimization of solar energy projects.

Financing the energy renovation of residential buildings through soft loans and third-party investement schemes

A guide for replicating successful energy efficiency projects across Europe, providing resources, case studies, and strategies to scale up building renovation initiatives.

The document exposes the Opengela Program in the Basque Country, its operational characteristics, and main milestones and indicators to guide the Program’s scalability.

Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is key to ensuring that holistic renovations are genuinely sustainable. While improving energy efficiency is crucial—like better insulation or heating upgrades—LCA helps us look beyond just immediate energy savings and consider the full environmental impact of the renovation, including the production, transportation, use, and disposal of materials. For EU-PEERS.EU members, this means making renovation choices that not only save energy today but also reduce waste and emissions throughout a building's entire life cycle, ensuring that every decision benefits both comfort and the planet in the long term.
