BUILDING ENERGY EFFICIENCY - CALL FOR EVIDENCE IN THE HOUSING SECTOR
July 3, 2012
The building sector accounts for 40% of the total energy use and for 36% of Europe’s CO2 emissions. It generates 9% of the total EU 27 GDP and 8% of the total employment. Since the EU aims at reductions in domestic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of 80% by 2050 (compared to 1990 level), the building stock - in particular the housing sector - plays a major role in achieving the 20-20-20 strategic targets.
URBACT Capitalisation Process 2012 Workstream 6 'Building Energy Efficiency' First Hearing and Core Group Meeting scheduled on July 23-24 in Paris. Call for Evidence is Still Open!
