Abstract: Buildings are responsible for a significant proportion of energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions in the European Union, accounting for approximately 36% of total EU greenhouse gas emissions. The EU’s objective is to achieve zero-emission buildings by 2050, a goal that applies not only to new buildings but also to existing ones. This transformation represents a significant challenge, with a number of risks and difficulties. The aim of this article is to draw attention to the revised Energy Performance of Buildings Directive, possible approaches to its transposition and implementation. Concurrently, it draws attention to the difficult issues of transposition and the possibility of using the transformation of buildings into zero-emission buildings to convert buildings into not only zero-emission but also environmentally sustainable buildings.
