Energy-efficient building renovation is a key practice to reduce European emissions. But this is exactly where homeowners face major, frustrating hurdles. In order to ease their renovation journey, Integrated Home Renovation Services (IHRS), or so-called One-Stop Shops for residential energy renovation (OSS), are emerging in Europe. EU Peers is here to support those IHRS / OSS through a shared Community of Practice.
More than 70 one-stop shops for home energy renovation and their supporters met in Brussels on 11 June 2024 at the 1st EU Peers Summit, officially launching the European community which enables them to learn, exchange knowledge, gain visibility and advocate their cause.
Two project partners of EU Peers, ENEA and Climate Alliance had the unique opportunity to participate in the last biannual meeting of the Concerted Action on the Energy Efficiency Directive (CA EED) on 21-22 March in Budapest.
