The recast of the EU Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (also called the "Green Homes" directive) mandates stringent emissions and energy usage reduction for the EU’s buildings. Professor Edoardo Croci, director of SUR Lab, highlights the unique challenges that Italy will face, considering that over 60% of building assets are in the lowest energy classes. To meet the directive requirements, significant investments and a more stringent building renovation plan are necessary, including new incentives aligned with the European and National climate strategies.
