Strengthening national frameworks for renewable and efficient heating and cooling in existing buildings
LIFE Clean Energy Transition · LIFE-PJG · Needs partners
What this call funds
This call funds projects that set up national platforms bringing together governments, installers, financiers and utilities to remove regulatory and market barriers blocking wider adoption of heat pumps and solar thermal systems in existing buildings. The goal is to make alternative financing schemes (like heating-as-a-service, leasing or community financing) more viable so households and building owners can more easily afford renewable heating and cooling upgrades. Projects should analyze barriers in 3 to 5 countries, propose and start testing solutions, and quantify energy savings, emissions reductions and investment triggered.
