EU Parliament votes for stricter renovation requirements. Stricter regulations should also apply to industry and agriculture.
EU wants to reduce the sector's energy consumption by 16 percent by 2030 compared to 2020 and by 20 to 22 percent by 2035. The majority of EU MPs also approved the law on industrial emissions. Many industrial and agricultural companies are therefore obliged to emit less nitrogen oxides, methane, ammonia or other substances that are harmful to the climate. Europe even wants to become the first climate-neutral region of the world by 2050.
