Nearly 50% of Europe's energy consumption is heating & cooling, only 6% of which is provided by clean, renewable technologies. Yet the sector was absent from today's #StateOfTheUnion speech. Have a look at our reaction with @cleanheateurope.bsky.social coolheatingcoalition.eu/2025/09/10/c...

New report out: most NECPs are not ambitious enough on decarbonising heating & cooling. A few EU member states, however, are leading the way: Austria, Denmark, Finland, and Lithuania. Read more: coolheatingcoalition.eu/knowledge_hu... Research by @inforse.bsky.social #EnergySky #EnviroSky

How are EU countries planning to decarbonise heating & cooling? Join us for the launch of a new Cool Heating Coalition report reviewing 17 updated NECPs. Learn what’s working, what’s missing—and why it matters for heating and cooling. 🔗 us06web.zoom.us/webinar/regi... #EnviroSky #EnergySky

I agree. One way to get the EU more independent from imports is quickly decarbonising its heating sector in particular. We have the solutions. Implement them!

🌍 Brussels turned up the heat—but we kept our cool. On 24 June, voices from across the sector came to our day of action on sustainable cooling. The message was clear: ➡️ We need passive cooling, natural refrigerants, 🍃 building design & clean district networks. #CoolSkills #WorldRefrigerationDay

Today, the EU Commission unveiled the long-awaited roadmap to end EU imports of Russian fossil fuels: a necessary step for peace, energy security and climate targets. Here's why it matters and our reaction 👇🧵 #EnergySky #EnviroSky

BREAKING: An EU climate fund has been subsidising fossil gas to the tune of billions, according to our new report. Since 2021, the Modernisation Fund has directed at least EUR 4.2 billion – more than a quarter of its total funding – to everything from waste incinerators to gas-fired power plants. 🧵

not surprising, sadly!

Most heat pumps use potent greenhouse gases as refrigerants, but by switching to natural refrigerants we can boost both climate and social benefits. Our new report explores how – eia-international.org/report/pumpi... #climate #climatechange #HFCs #heatpumps

Big oil doesn't like the small guys opposing their money-spinning, planet-wrecking projects. Seems more than half of jurors had links to fossil fuel industry. Kangaroo court. @greenpeaceusa.bsky.social lost $660M lawsuit #ImWithGreenpeace www.greenpeace.org/internationa...

🎉 One year of the Cool Heating Coalition! 🎉 One year ago, we launched the Cool Heating Coalition with a clear mission: to achieve decarbonised, renewable and affordable heating and cooling by 2040 in Europe. 🧵 👇

Heating and cooling buildings requires a lot of energy. Around half of all the energy we consume in the EU goes towards it — and most of that is still from polluting fossil fuels 😷 The EU has all it needs to change this. How? 🧵👇

79% of Germany's ~20 million residential buildings are still heated with oil and gas, according to the newest report by dena. Decarbonising buildings would slash Germany's GHG emissions by about 15%. The clean heat transition is essential for the country's net-zero targets. Time to #BringHeatHome.

Join our team! We're looking for a junior policy officer to help us to assess financing gaps in the clean heat transition and identify the policies needed to bridge them. Have a look at the role and send us your application by 31 January 👇 https://buff.ly/40p34ew
