Energy efficiency (EE) is fundamental for the cost-effective transition towards a decarbonised and reliable energy system.

The European Commission has adopted energy efficiency as a pillar of the Energy Union with the “Efficiency First” (E1st) as a guiding principle underlining it, in which E1st should play a central role in all national plans and reports to the Energy Union.

Specific to EE in buildings this is reflected by the current insufficient trends observed in the renovation rates of buildings, which reveal the urgent need for action since this is the largest consumer of energy in Europe. To address this appropriate implementation of EE measures which are adopted by the majority of final energy users is a must.
