APPLiA reaction to COP26 Glasgow Climate Agreements

The COP26 Glasgow Climate Summit came to an end with a handful of agreements touching upon different sectors at the global level.

Joint letter on mandatory building standards to address high energy prices and achieve EU decarbonisation goals

Today, through a range of highly efficient existing technologies and at affordable costs, it is possible to significantly reduce and optimise energy needs in buildings. Yet, the yearly energy renovation rate in the European Union remains well under 1% of the total building stock.

Joint industry statement on healthy buildings for all

With 97% of EU buildings in need of renovation, the EU Renovation Wave Initiative and the upcoming targeted revision of the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) represent a true opportunity to boost both energy efficiency and indoor environmental quality that cannot be missed.

UN COP 26 Glasgow: The Home Appliance Recommendations

Cross-industry joint statement on a EU agenda for evidence-based and better policy-making
