This presentation introduces the key findings from the Deliverable 2.1c “Structural Factors Impacting Energy Efficiency Policy Implementation in the European Private Rented Sector” produced in the context of the Horizon 2020 ENPOR project. This report examines the structural barriers preventing investment in energy efficiency measures in Europe’s Private Rented Sector (PRS) housing stock.
The analysis was undertaken considering the broader trends in private renting, the regulatory landscape currently in place, and the need to reduce social vulnerability and income poverty. According to the experts’ viewpoints and a stakeholder survey, financial, political/regulatory, social, and geographical factors were identified as key barriers to the implementation of energy efficiency policies in the PRS.
