Recital 1 a (new)
(1a) To the extent that an ambitious and binding target means enhanced order book visibility for private stakeholders that are involved in renovation, those stakeholders should achieve economies of scale, resulting, in principle, in a reduction in the unit cost of production of their materials and products. The companies involved should ensure that this reduction in costs is shrewdly distributed between an increase in their margins and cuts in their prices, in order to help bring down the barrier to investment that can be posed by efforts geared towards the energy renovation of buildings, and, more generally, efforts to improve energy efficiency.

(7) The provisions on long-term renovation strategies provided for in Directive 2012/27/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council13 should be moved to Directive 2010/31/EU, where they fit more coherently, and updated to ensure access to affordable energy also for the most vulnerable citizens. __________________ 13 Directive 2012/27/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 October 2012 on energy efficiency, amending Directives 2009/125/EC and 2010/30/EU and repealing Directives 2004/8/EC and 2006/32/EC (OJ L 315, 14.11.2012, p. 1).

(aa) The following paragraph 1a is inserted: ‘(1a) Member States shall establish a long-term strategy for mobilising investment in the renovation of the national stock of residential and commercial buildings, both public and private. That strategy shall encompass: – a national social dialogue framework that enables the social partners to monitor and steer the quantitative and qualitative impact of the long-term building renovation strategy, giving rise to an employment/training assessment once a year, the results of which shall be made public; – a biannual economic and social assessment of the impact that the implementation of the long-term building renovation strategy has on income distribution, to be made public once the results have been submitted to the national parliaments and the social partners; – a specific point on the economic and social sustainability of measures taken for those affected by energy poverty; to that end, a return on investment indicator based on social and environmental criteria shall be established in addition to the technical and financial criteria used in issuing energy performance certificates; – a list indicating the carbon footprint of the materials available to companies involved in building renovation, which is updated annually in order to minimise the carbon footprint of work carried out.’

This requirement shall apply to all non- residential buildings, with more than ten parking spaces, as of 1 January 2025. __________________ 17 OJ L 307, 28.10.2014, p. 1

‘6. Member States shall link their financial measures for energy efficiency improvements in the renovation of buildings: (a) to the energy savings achieved due to such renovation. These savings shall be determined by comparing energy performance certificates issued before and after renovation.’; (b) to the energy performance of the equipment or material used for the renovation. In this case, the equipment or material must be installed by a professional with the appropriate qualification or certification. (c) to the results of another relevant, transparent and proportionate method that makes it possible to show the improvement in energy performance.

1. Member States shall lay down the necessary measures to establish a regular inspection of the accessible parts of systems used for heating buildings whose effective rated output is higher than 20 kW, such as the heat generator, control system and circulation pump(s) for non-residential buildings with total primary energy use of over 250MWh and for residential buildings with a centralised technical building system of a cumulated effective rated output of over 100 kW. That inspection shall include an assessment of the boiler efficiency and the boiler sizing compared with the heating requirements of the building. The assessment of the boiler sizing does not have to be repeated as long as no changes were made to the heating system or as regards the heating requirements of the building in the meantime.’;
