The White Paper on Energy-efficient Buildings as Job-creation Motor identified jobs at risk in the construction sector and considered reskilling strategies considering new job opportunities arising within the scope of the clean energy transition. The white paper should touch upon the gender dimension, aspects of societal transformation as well as European policy recommendations and instruments focusing on skills and just transition.

This report represents the outcome of IWG5 Project that emphasizes the societal dimensions of achieving energy-efficient buildings across Europe. Through annual Study Tours held between 2023 and 2025 in Berlin, Brussels, and Valencia, this report explored how energy efficiency in buildings can be realized not only through technical innovation, but also through inclusive, people-centered approaches.

The project aims to gather the knowledge acquired in terms of decision support tools, good practices and strategies in one common platform, the PrioritEE toolbox, which can be used by local administrations to manage and monitor energy consumption, assess the cost-effectiveness of a predefined set of Energy Efficiency (EE) and Renewable Energy Sources (RES) measures, and prioritize investments. Moreover, it will release a policy document on common strategies in the MED area to develop local action plans to reduce the energy consumption of MPBs.

Community energy refers to a wide range of collective energy actions that involve citizens’ participation in the energy system. The Clean Energy Package recognises certain categories of community energy initiatives as ‘energy communities’ in European legislation. Energy communities can be understood as a way to ‘organise’ collective energy actions around open, democratic participation and governance and the provision of benefits for the members or the local community. This report focuses on 24 community energy schemes that could potentially be considered types of energy communities.

Project assumes renovation of a significant share of the district heating distribution network, characterized by significant water and energy losses. In 2017 total heated surface was 5,6 million sqm and delivered energy was 1,3 TWh. Energy loses were close to 15% and water loses close to 40%. Project assumes revitalization of 68 km of the network by the mid of 2023. Project brings added value to achievement of national and EU targets related to energy efficiency and GHG reduction as it foresees total energy savings of 0,201798PJ and significant decrease of the water losses.
