The European Commission organised for the first time a high level event on the role of heating and cooling in the European energy transition.

The conference discussed the issues facing the heating and cooling sector which accounts for half of the EU’s energy consumption – ahead of both electricity and transport.

Attendees included European and national policy makers, representatives from industry, businesses and consumer associations, NGOs, local and national authorities, academia and research institutions. Miguel Arias Cañete, European Commissioner for Climate Action and Energy, delivered the keynote speech.
