Event Description
EBC and UIPI are pleased to invite you to the seminar “Retrofitting the private housing stock: Is the Juncker Plan a solution?”.
Construction SMEs and private property owners are fundamental elements of the vastly untapped potential to boost investment at the micro-economic level and at the same time to fulfil the EU requirements in terms of energy efficiency. The purpose of the event will be to grasp if and how the plan could be used to boost private investment in “small scale energy efficiency renovation”.
This seminar is part of a series of two roundtables about “Financing energy efficiency in private housing”.
