The EU-funded project ProGETonE presents its final brochure showing the most relevant outcomes of the project. 

L´ENEA propone un vademecum redatto apposta per i cittadini con lo scopo di fornire soluzioni e suggerimenti pratici per ridurre ed ottimizzare i consumi energetici derivati dal riscaldamento domestico. Tali comportamenti risultano fondamentali a causa delle misure di risparmio previste dal decreto.

10 EU Energy organisations urge the European Commission to revise the EU heating & cooling strategy. They highlight that there is an urgent need to accelerate the roll-out of renewable and clean heating technologies in buildings and industry in order to achieve climate neutrality by 2050 and respond to the energy crisis.

EUREC has analysed the proposed amendment to the Renewable Energy Directive (“RED III”) and is calling for at least 5% of renewable capacity to come from innovative renewable energy technology. The main goal is to speed up the commercialisation of new, high-quality, European-made renewable energy technology.

The potential of wind and solar energy in the EU still needs to be fully exploited. Indeed the production of electricity is still too dependent on fossil gas and policy choices increased the EU dependency on gas and held back on the EU’s renewable and energy efficiency ambition. This has led to higher inflation rates.

As digitalisation is increasing in the construction and building sector, stakeholders are starting to question the business-as-usual approach. The sector has been experiencing a significant acceleration in technology adoption leading to more efficient processes and value chains. The benefits of this digital transformation have to be highlighted, whereas the challenges must be overcome with increased collaboration.

Bioenergy currently accounts for two-thirds of all renewable energy consumption worldwide. Modern applications of bioenergy can provide for electricity generation, heating in buildings, transport fuels or industrial uses, and can play a main role in the energy transition.

This guide contains peer-reviewed papers to make the proper reference which represents the base for the practical implications for policymakers, certifiers, designers and constructors. The guide discusses the importance of the reliability of performance gaps from the design phase to the final building.

Boosting the digitalisation in the energy sector to integrate energy systems as indicated the latest European Action Plan can be achieved if research and innovation are implemented. Specifically, they are key to accelerate the development, implementation and upscaling of digital solutions in energy supply and demand.

The European Commission has developed an Action Plan to digitalise the energy sector, and thus to improve the energy efficiency and renewable integration. It has been highlighted how the green and digital transition must go hand in hand, hence more innovative digital solutions are needed.
