Important to have a discussion with representatives of the glass industry. This is a very important sector, which is facing challenges due to overcapacity and unfair competition. We discussed the Clean Industrial Deal and the opportunities stemming from it.

Will EU’s buildings directive bring benefits of 'when' we use energy for low-income households? Improving worst homes, in #EPBD, is vital to help hhs benefit from cheap energy at different times of the day - a new tool to alleviate #energypoverty @EURACTIV tinyurl.com/2p9cjxub

It makes complete sense to begin the process of improving Europe's buildings with ones that are wasting the most energy. Why? Firstly, it's the most cost effective approach that can deliver the largest energy savings (i.e. lower bills) for households. 2/4
