Description

The EU Buildings Climate Tracker (EU BCT) confirms that the EU is facing a considerable gap in its progress towards climate neutrality. This webinar allows to discover the EU BCT and understand how it works and the consequences of this year’s results: What are 5 indicators used to measure decarbonisation, and what priority measures should the EU take to get back on track?

Now in its second edition, the EU BCT finds that the EU building stock remains off track to achieve climate neutrality by 2050.

Developed by BPIE (Buildings Performance Institute Europe), the EU BCT monitors the progress of the building stock in the European Union towards the goal of achieving climate neutrality by 2050, in the form of an index. This second edition analyses the progress of the EU building stock towards climate neutrality from 2015 until 2020.

This webinar presents:

What are the main results of this year’s EU BCT and what do they mean for Europe in terms of reaching its climate objectives?
What are the 5 indicators used in the EU BCT?
What are the EU BCT results for different sectors, ie: households, service sector, heating and cooling from renewables, where should we urgently pick up momentum?
In view of the interinstitutional negotiations on the EPBD (Europe’s Buildings Directive) what should the EU’s regulatory priorities be to get on track to climate neutrality?
