The EU’s major buildings regulations are coming under review this autumn with the Energy Efficiency Package. Let’s make 2016 the year of delivery for EU jobs and growth by enshrining a long-term vision for the EU’s leaky buildings in the Energy Performance of Buildings and the Energy Efficiency Directives. Contribute to the debate with the Slovak EU Presidency, key stakeholders and policy-makers at Renovate Europe Day 2016 (REDay2016), about how to set the EU vision to achieve Nearly Zero Energy Building (NZEB) standards by 2050 for the building stock.
- How can we ensure that investments are made in sectors, like construction, that are vital to relaunch growth and deliver a sustainable energy future?
- How can the EU support this key industry for the future and galvanize a new generation of SMEs that are so vital to the stability of the EU economy and to the wellbeing of EU citizens?
- What regulatory and financial frameworks are needed to create new market opportunities, improve skills and increase the number of quality local jobs for renovation SMEs across Europe?
The morning conference of REDay2016 will be followed by an afternoon site visit of renovation projects in the Brussels Region, in partnership with Bruxelles Environnement .
