📰 Inside the EU Bubble: last EFIEES' Weekly News Roundup before summer break 😎 Our team has selected the most relevant news related to EFIEES' activities from the past week, to keep you informed about developments within the EU Bubble. Here are the highlights of the week: ⭐The freshly elected MEPs have adopted European Parliament committees' size and composition. You can find the list of ITRE MEPs here: https://lnkd.in/ebmWQTG6 and the list of ENVI MEPs here: https://lnkd.in/eS75Q3rx ⭐Roberta Metsola was re-elected by MEPs as European Parliament President ⭐Ministers discussed #geothermalenergy during informal Energy Council meetings ⭐The #JRC published an “Overview of EU building envelope energy requirement for climate neutrality” ⭐European Parliament re-elected Ursula von der Leyen as European Commission President ⭐ The Revision of the Industrial Emissions Directive (#IED) was published in the OJEU This was our last "weekly news" before the summer break. See you in September with a lot of fresh ews from Brussels. 🌞

🌟 Last Tuesday, the revised Industrial Emissions Directive #IED 🏭was published in the EU Official Journal, following its formal adoption by the Council on 12th April. ⌛ It’s the kick off for the 22 months transposition period for Member States to translate its provisions into national law, with an entry into force on 1st January 2028 🍃 The revised IED strengthens the control of emissions from over 50 000  industrial installations subjects to its permitting rules, while promoting #energyefficiency and #circulareconomy. The “integrated approach” for emissions limit values is maintained, while a new concept is introduced for indicative environment performance levels for energy, water, waste and other resources. Installation-level transformation plans have to be designed by 2030, to prepare for industrial transformations needed in the period 2030-2050 to reach decarbonisation and circularity goals. 🔎 The revised IED 👉 https://lnkd.in/eXPPArWZ

🚨 Breaking news: with 401 votes in favour, Ursula von der Leyen has been re-elected President of the European Commission. In her political guidelines for the next European Commission, the President-elect notably calls for a new "#CleanIndustrialDeal for competitive industries and quality jobs" to be proposed in the first 100 days of the mandate. She also announces her will to "revise EU State aid rules to enable housing support measures, especially for affordable energy-efficient and social housing." We look forward to this new EU term, which will have to focus on the implementation of the #Fitfor55 package, while boosting EU competitiveness and guaranteeing a just transition. 📸 : European Parliament

📰 Inside the EU Bubble: EFIEES' Weekly News Roundup Our team has selected the most relevant news related to EFIEES' activities from the past week, to keep you informed about developments within the EU Bubble. Here are the highlights of the week: ⭐The Hungarian presidency of the Council resumes work on the Energy Taxation Directive (#ETD) ⭐France submits its final National Energy & Climate Plan (#NECP), including a 2030 target for renewable energy ⭐The Greens draft their priorities for the next Commission and meet with Ursula von der Leyen ⭐The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) publishes its 2024 Renewable energy statistics ⭐The Regulatory Assistance Project (RAP) publishes a briefing on implemention of new provisions on energy poverty #GreenDeal

🎇 Discover our Vision for 2024-2029 🎇  🎯 By 2030, the EU should reduce its energy consumption by 17%. Respectively, buildings and the industry sector account for 40% and 26% of the final energy consumption in the EU. 📉 Effective decarbonisation of European #buildings and #industry requires long-lasting solutions like Energy Performance Contracts #EnPCs, which guarantee a level of actual energy performance over time. More than a financing tool, energy management solutions such as Energy Performance Contracting should be regarded as the preferred option to accompany buildings’ renovations and industrial decarbonisation projects. 📜 Read our full Vision for 2024-2029 here 👉 https://lnkd.in/diy56tkE ARPEE România ASSOESCo Associazione delle Energy Service Company FEDENE Febetec V.Z.W./A.S.B.L

📰 Inside the EU Bubble: EFIEES' Weekly News Roundup Our team has selected the most relevant news related to EFIEES' activities from the past week, to keep you informed about developments within the EU Bubble. Here are the highlights of the week: ⭐ Only 5 Member States have submitted their final updated #NECPs in time (deadline was 30 June) ⭐ The European Commission opened a public consultation on the amendment of the EU #ETS Monitoring and Reporting Regulation (MRR) ⭐ The #Hungarianpresidency of the Council started on July 1 ⭐ Bruegel - Improving economic policy published a report showing that the EU needs 149 billion euros per year to decarbonise buildings ⭐ BusinessEurope published a study on “Energy and climate transition: how to strengthen EU's competitiveness" ⭐European Climate Neutrality Observatory (ECNO) published a report showing that EU needs to double investment to meet its 2030 climate goals #GreenDeal

🎇 Discover our Vision for 2024-2029 🎇  📊 In 2021, over 67% of EU’s heat came from non-renewables. It's urgent to prioritise actions for decarbonising #heating & #cooling, in order to meet our climate goals. ♨ ❄ European regulations already recognise the benefits of a district approach but the local dimension of heating and cooling has to be better taken into account in future EU and national strategies. To make the green transition happen, all the thermal solutions have a role to play as there is no one-size-fits-all solution. Let's prioritise district approach, empower ESCOs, and maximise the use of Efficient #DistrictHeating & Cooling systems!   📜 Read our full Vision for 2024-2029 here 👉 https://lnkd.in/gQy6ihDp
