EPAH brings together EU, national and local stakeholders to discuss how EU policies and EPAH are stepping up energy poverty alleviation efforts, particularly as just transition commitments are bolstered by the Fit for 55 Package and as the high energy prices call for attention to the needs of vulnerable consumers. It has an online interactive database that allows visitors to discover local and international projects and measures addressing energy poverty worldwide.

Creation of one-stop shops for deep renovation pilots in France, Germany, Italy, Portugal and Latvia

https://europaonestop.eu/

Target groups: local and regional authorities

Time frame:
Oct 2020 - Sept 2023

The EU-funded EUROPA project aims at promoting and boosting the implementation of deep energy renovation in the residential building sector. To reach this, the project will build trust in the market, trigger new investments and set up standards and specifications to guarantee their performance. Together with the consortium partners, the project aims at triggering € 37 million of sustainable energy investments in the following regions: Piemonte (IT), Alto Alentejo (PT), Allgau (DE), Isère (FR) and Latvia.
A proper mix of financial and long-term market incentives will attract market operators to use the published set of standards and specifications. This will ensure not only that the expected impacts from planned investments are reached in terms of primary energy and CO2 emissions reduction, but also that the market continues to scale up as the market actors will continue to see fair returns over the following years from their work.
