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...

With rising temperatures, cooling is becoming an essential service to all EU citizens. A scramble to install conventional air conditioning would place stress on the electricity grid, increase bills & make our cities hotter. Have a look at our latest paper: coolheatingcoalition.eu/wp-content/u...

Europe must reduce its reliance on Russian gas, but paying a $750 billion import bill is not the way. Decarbonising heating and cooling would mean getting rid of almost half the gas we import from Russia – and replacing it with cheap, European energy. #EnergySky #EnviroSky @tomvasseur.bsky.social

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

Europe is the fastest-warming continent. As we continue to experience record-breaking temperatures, are our homes and cities ready for the heat? Have a look at the infographic we developed in collaboration with our members @caneurope.org #EnergySky #EnviroSky

🌍 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

As people struggle to heat their homes during the winter, many others struggle to keep them cool during the summer☀️ Making our homes climate-resilient through insulating them and installing sustainable, renewable cooling technologies can help protect millions of people from extreme temperatures🛡️

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. 🧵

🗓️ With National Social Climate Plans due by June 2025, EU governments are approaching a make-or-break moment for the green transition. Now is the time to mainstream heat pumps and help low-income households decarbonise. 👉 Read our policy recommendations: www.coolproducts.eu/wp-content/u...

Installing 20M heat pumps with SCF funds could cut EU gas use by 11% — almost as much as we imported from Russia in 2024! In some countries, household CO₂ emissions could drop by up to 47%. That's real climate action 🔥

A third of the Social Climate Fund (SCF) could fund grants & zero-interest loans for 20M heat pumps by 2032 This would reach 65% of all energy-poor households Even better? Add a third of #ETS2 revenues and we’re talking 100M heat pumps — clean heating for most low-income households across Europe.

🔥 𝐂𝐋𝐄𝐀𝐍 𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐓 𝐑𝐄𝐕𝐎𝐋𝐔𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍? 🔥 📢 New EEB study: Just one-third of the EU’s Social Climate Fund could ✅ Deploy 20M heat pumps ✅ Cover every energy-poor household in 9 EU countries ✅ Cut EU gas use by 11% Carbon revenues = a game changer for homes 📘 Read the report: www.coolproducts.eu/heating-and-...

In 2023, the EU’s gas import dependency stood at 90% 🤯 Heating & cooling in buildings is nearly 40% of the EU’s gas consumption. Replacing fossil fuel heating with renewable & local solutions is a climate imperative & a strategic necessity for energy security. Check this out #EnergySky 💡🔌

Half our energy demand goes to heating & cooling. Clean heat = ✔️ Less gas dependence ✔️ Stronger local economies ✔️ Affordable energy for citizens Will be watching the @IEA.org's Summit on the Future of #EnergySecurity with interest. It's time to make #CleanHeat a priority. #EnergySky🔌 💡

#WorldWoodDay fact: 🔥 Wood makes up ¾ of "renewable heat" in EU buildings—but at what cost? While 🪵 is a top source of air pollution in cities, it also provides 30-60% of the heat in Central and Eastern Europe. 📖 Read more: www.greeneuropeanjournal.eu/up-in-smoke-the-biomass-energy-paradox/

“Dear EU Commission, please use your power to maximise the benefits of the heat pump roll out.” EIA, alongside a group of European organisations, wrote to the EU urging them to prioritise the roll out of natural refrigerant heat pumps.

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? 🧵👇

The future of heat is decarbonised and renewable - otherwise, it won't be affordable. We can only hope the new coalition's ambitions on heating reflect the findings of the report by @co2online.bsky.social. #EnergySky 💡🔌

"Warm, healthy homes are a necessity, not a luxury," says coalition director @dvinderwelt.bsky.social Clean heating must be accessible to all. Investing in insulation, clean heat tech & decarbonised renewable solutions is the way forward. #CleanHeatForAll #EnergySky💡 🔌

Jobs in renewables have been increasing despite economic crises, according to a new report by the German Economic Institute. The report found that companies are particularly looking for workers in the heat and air conditioning sectors👇 #HVAC #AirConditioning #HeatingAndCooling #EnergySky🔌 💡
