(5) The “Fit for 55” legislative package announced in the European Commission 2021 Work Programme aims to implement those objectives. It covers a range of policy areas including energy efficiency, renewable energy, land use, land change and forestry, energy taxation, effort sharing, emissions trading and alternative fuels infrastructure. The revision of Directive 2010/31/EU is an integral part of that package. The revision of Directive 2003/87/EC (EU-ETS) to expand carbon emissions trading to road transport and buildings, with the view of aiming for a carbon price signal for the whole economy, has the potential to replace costly and ineffective regulatory requirements for energy efficiency in buildings in the long term.

(5a) The dilemma between affordable housing and climate protection requires technological neutrality and the innovative power of business and science. The price signal of carbon emission trading unleashes competition and guides action so that emission reduction takes place where it is most cost-effective, thus reducing the overall cost of the climate transition for the Union and its citizens. Under the European Green Deal, the Commission therefore proposed revising Directive 2003/87/EC (EU-ETS) to expand carbon emissions trading to road transport and buildings, with the view of aiming for a carbon price signal for the whole economy. This inclusion of buildings in emissions trading has the potential to replace costly and ineffective regulatory requirements for energy efficiency in buildings in the long term.

(6) Buildings account for 40 % of final energy consumption in the Union and 36% of its energy-related greenhouse gas emissions . Therefore, reduction of energy consumption , in line with the energy efficiency first principle as laid down in Article 3 [revised EED] and defined in Article 2(18) of Regulation (EU) 2018/1999 of the European Parliament and of the Council32 and the use of energy from renewable sources in the buildings sector constitute important measures needed to reduce the Union’s greenhouse gas emissions. Reduced energy consumption and an increased use of energy from renewable sources also have an important part to play in reducing the Union’s energy dependency, promoting security of energy supply and technological developments and in creating opportunities for employment and regional development, in particular in islands and rural areas. __________________ 32 Regulation (EU) 2018/1999 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 December 2018 on the Governance of the Energy Union and Climate Action, amending Regulations (EC) No 663/2009 and (EC) No 715/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council, Directives 94/22/EC, 98/70/EC, 2009/31/EC, 2009/73/EC, 2010/31/EU, 2012/27/EU and 2013/30/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council, Council Directives 2009/119/EC and (EU) 2015/652 and repealing Regulation (EU) No 525/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (OJ L 328, 21.12.2018, p. 1).

(27) The Union-wide minimum energy performance standards should be based on harmonised energy performance classes. By defining the lowest energy performance class G as the worst-performing 15%buildings of each Member State’s national building stock, the harmonisation of energy performance classes ensures similar efforts by all Member States, while the definition of the best energy performance class A ensures the convergence of the harmonised energy performance class scale towards the common vision of zero-emission buildings.
