Bridging the gap between the EPBD and the ground-level reality of digital tools like the HORIS one-stop-shops.
The revised Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) sets a bold trajectory for Europe’s renovation wave. Central to this mission is the rollout of One-Stop-Shops (OSS)—hubs that provide homeowners, SMEs, and all actors in the renovation value chain with independent, end-to-end guidance on renovations.
Did you know that in 2026, over 100 one-stop-shops exist across Europe?
The LIFE EU-funded HORIS project is at the forefront of this transition, having launched three digital OSS platforms integrated into national consumer organizations in Spain, Portugal, and Italy. By simplifying legal and financial barriers for citizens while aggregating projects into financeable packages, HORIS bridges the gap between policy and implementation, offering homeowners guidance about financial schemes and support on finding renovation professionals whose services are “quality-assured”.
This event explores the project’s journey and looks toward the future. Three panel of experts will discuss how the HORIS model performed, how such tools are embedded in the EU legislation and their future. How can AI, blockchain, and smart city data further personalize the renovation experience and accelerate the path toward Positive Energy Districts?
The event will be held from 9 to 1pm CET in Comet, Brussels, and will conclude with a free lunch. Save the date in your calendars and pre-register now.
