Euralarm, representing the electronic fire safety and security industry in Europe, celebrates the European Parliament’s plenary vote in favour of the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD); a major step towards decarbonisation of the building stock.
Better-performing buildings also mean safer and more secure buildings. Every year, EU countries face major fires in residential, commercial, and industrial buildings, taking the lives of thousands of European citizens and causing considerable environmental damage. This can be avoided through the deployment of integrated fire safety and security technologies.
