LEGACY OF
THE PAST
Buildings & Vehicles:
almost carbon copies
on a global scale
The heating and cooling
of today’s building stock
produces just 13% less carbon
emissions than ALL road
vehicles annually.
Today, over 75%
of heating and
cooling energy
needs in EU
buildings come
from fossil fuels

75%
of EU
buildings
are energy
inefficient.
Only 0.2% of EU buildings undergo
deep energy renovation annually.
Mind the Gap!
It will take decades to convert
today’s EU consumption to
renewable energy.

How do we close
this gap?
The foundation for
change is already here
The first step is to reduce
energy consumption.
Energy efficient building
envelopes are key to
unlocking lower energy
demands.
Kingspan’s innovative and efficient
building envelope solutions offer
flexibility in renovation. Advanced
insulation materials enable thinner
applications, impacting less on
precious light and space.
