As our team is ready to meet new and re-elected MEPs in Strasbourg this week, we present another of our main asks for the next mandate. With roughly 75% of buildings in the EU being energy inefficient, a large part of the #energy used goes to waste. Why would we want to keep wasting energy? We need investments to transform existing #buildings into energy efficient ones, which will improve living conditions and durably reduce energy poverty, while also lowering energy bills. Read below for details 👇 #buildings #energyefficiency #efficientbuildings #energy
