Meeting with Rosalinde van der Vlies, Director, DG ENER

Efficient Buildings Europe had the pleasure of hosting a fruitful and forward-looking meeting with Rosalinde van der Vlies, Director for Just Transition, Consumers, Energy Efficiency and Innovation at DG ENER, and Serena Pontoglio, from DG ENER, European Commission.

The discussion focused on several key topics shaping the EU energy transition:

  • Follow-up to the May industry stakeholder dialogue with Commissioner Jørgensen
  • The 10 Action Points launched by the Commission during the IEA conference in Brussels
  • Ideas for tripartite agreements on energy efficiency
  • The post-2030 climate and energy framework
  • The Citizen Energy Package

Representatives from our member companies actively contributed to the exchange: different perspectives and inputs are vital in shaping policy that works on the ground!

The meeting was followed by our annual summer drinks, kindly hosted by Saint-Gobain. A big thank you to them for their warm hospitality and support!

Through structured dialogue and hands-on industry input, we’re helping shape EU policy that supports real progress in the buildings sector and ensures our members have a voice where it matters most.
