Ifølge EBB, European Environmental Bureau, har Europa Parlamentet vedtaget det reviderede Direktiv om Bygningers Energiydelse (EPBD).
Direktivet har til formål at reducere byggeriet CO2-aftryk og pålægger regeringer i EU-lande at vurdere og begrænse udledninger fra alle nye bygninger fra 2030, med særlig vægt på at reducere indlejret CO2 fra byggematerialer.
Laetitia Aumont, politisk rådgiver i EEB, udtaler: “This law is a milestone climate moment. EU countries must now keep up the momentum. Targeting renovation for the worst-performing homes is vital—it’s a smart investment which unlocks high energy savings, emission reductions, as well as combats energy poverty and boosts employment.”
Davide Sabbadin, nuværende politisk chef i EEB, tilføjer: “The inclusion of a phase-out date for public support and usage delivers a clear message: fossil heating is on its way out. This should embolden countries and the EU Commission to set even higher phase-out ambitions, swiftly reducing energy bills and climate impacts. With a strong political commitment, a fossil-free future for our homes is within reach.”
