Financing the energy efficient transformation of the building sector in the EU
This publication presents and analyses the policies implemented in the building sector in the European Union, its Member States and Croatia and Norway. It mainly relies on the MURE database with policy measures on energy efficiency, covering all EU countries plus Croatia and Norway and also includes the quantitative impact of the measures (www.muredatabase.com). The tool can be used to support energy policy formulation by the European Commission, e.g. as part of the monitoring and evaluation of the National Energy Efficiency Actions Plans submitted under the Directives on End-use Energy Efficiency and Energy Services (ESD) and under the new Energy Efficiency Directive (EED). This brochure, while providing a general view on energy efficiency policies in the buildings sector, focuses on important issues and questions of energy policies directed towards financing the energy efficient transformation of the built environment.
