I will briefly summarize the ecoENERGY initiatives, Mr. Chairman: there's the ecoENERGY technology initiative, which funds research, development, and demonstration of clean energy technologies; the ecoENERGY for industry program, which helps industry improve energy use; the ecoENERGY for buildings and houses program, which encourages the construction and operation of more energy-efficient buildings and houses; the ecoENERGY retrofit initiative, which provides financial support and information to encourage the retrofit of homes and small and medium-sized enterprises; the ecoENERGY for renewable power program, which provides incentives to boost Canada's supply of clean electricity from renewable sources such as wind, biomass, small hydro ...[+++]and ocean energy; and, the ecoENERGY for renewable heat initiative, which provides incentives and industry support to increase the adoption of clean, renewable thermal technologies.

Calls on the Commission and the Member States also to focus on the energy efficiency of existing houses and other buildings, as 40% of total energy use is accounted for by buildings; calls, in that connection, for the creation of better conditions for the uptake of ICTs for intelligent buildings; encourages Member States to offer incentives for the restoration of older buildings and the construction of passive houses and zero-emission houses;

- Rapidly improving the energy performance of the EU's existing buildings and taking the lead to make very low energy houses the norm for new buildings;

It will take the necessary steps, in collaboration with the building sector, to develop a deployment strategy for very low energy or passive houses, with a view to moving towards this type of houses as a standard in new construction in the medium term, as the appropriate technologies become commercially available.

This program will encourage the construction, operation and retrofit of more energy-efficient buildings and houses through the implementation of complementary activities such as rating, labelling and training.

We need your support of our recommendations for the replacement of the buildings and houses and the clean-up of the environmental damage in our area.
