Decoupling electricity and gas prices, how to ensure everyone can invest in a heat pump, and the future carbon cost of buildings under the EU’s second Emissions Trading System.

These are just some of the hot topics discussed by the four MEPs and two energy analysts who made up the panel of the policy debate for EHPA’s members which followed our 2025 General Assembly today.
