The new EPBD IV Directive, published in the Official Journal of the European Union on May 8, 2024, aims at decarbonizing the European building stock by 2050. Member States must transpose the directive by May 29, 2026, and prepare national renovation plans to make residential and non-residential, public and private buildings zero-emission. Residential buildings must reduce primary energy use by at least 16% by 2030 and by 20-22% by 2035 compared to 2020 levels. For non-residential buildings, energy performance requirements are set for at least 16% of buildings by 2030 and 26% by 2033. New buildings must be zero-emission by 2030, with an earlier deadline of 2028 for public buildings. This commitment represents a significant challenge for our country and will have a major impact on the real estate market.

The workshop aims to highlight the scale of the challenge facing our country and the repercussions on the real estate market of a massive renovation process of the national building stock.

CONSTRUCTION 4.0 

Building for climate

The challenges posed by the energy transition require a step change in the decision-making and construction processes related to the construction industry. The possibility of creating synergies among supply chain actors is a necessary response to adequately respond to the changes we will experience in the coming years. It is necessary to rethink a new sustainability-oriented construction model supported by processes of innovation, industrialization and digitalization. The main actors in this process are the builders, who today represent the engine of change. The KeepZero space aims to be a place to debate the future of the construction industry, to bring out the entrepreneurial skills of the area and the companies that are investing in innovation and can contribute to change.
