On 29 May 2026 the deadline expired for Member States to transpose the EU Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD, 2024/1275). According to the Green Building Council España, Spain had covered 60% of the 155 provisions requiring transposition by that date. Still pending are, among others, the RITE thermal installations regulation, renovation passports, building databases and the infrastructure for the Smart Readiness Indicator (SRI, due June 2027).

This week marks the end of the two-month window the European Commission gave member states, Spain included, to complete transposition of Directive (EU) 2024/1275 on the Energy Performance of Buildings (EPBD), after opening infringement proceedings in July against all 27 countries for missing the original 29 May deadline. This is no routine paperwork: it is the clearest signal yet that Brussels intends to accelerate, with firm dates and penalties attached, the decarbonisation of Europe’s building stock ahead of 2050.
