The Renovate Europe Campaign, an initiative set up by Efficient Buildings Europe (formerly EuroACE), has for years been lobbying for greater ambitions in this area. It wants the EU to triple the annual renovation rate of the EU building stock from the current 1% to 3% by 2020, and to ensure that the aggregate result leads to an 80% reduction of the energy demand of the building stock by 2050, compared to 2005.
