Bringing Buildings on Track to Reach Zero-Carbon by 2050

This report is the outcome of a six-month long endeavour of deep analytical work conducted by CE Delft, with support from Climact. Its aim is to highlight the importance and urgency of decarbonising the building sector in order to achieve net-zero economy targets in line with the EU’s commitment under the 2015 Paris Agreement. It assesses the policies and innovation needed to achieve a fully decarbonised EU residential building sector by 2050, making the case for new policies targeting the sector at the EU, national and local levels.
