Recital 2 a (new)
(2a) Around 50 million households in the Union are affected by energy poverty. Energy poverty should be considered as the inability of a household to support an adequate level of energy supply so as to guarantee basic levels of comfort and health, due to a combination of low income, high-energy prices and low quality, poor performing housing stock. The present building renovation rates are insufficient and those buildings owned or occupied by low-income citizens at risk of energy poverty are the hardest to reach.

Recital 6 a (new)
(6a) The 2015 Paris Agreement on climate change (COP21) must be reflected in the Union’s efforts to decarbonise its buildings stock, taking into account that almost 50% of the Union’s final energy demand is used for heating and cooling, of which 80% is used in buildings. The Union’s energy and climate goals therefore need to be based 100% on renewable energy by 2050, which can be achieved only making full use of energy saving potential and the “energy efficiency first” principle.
