At the DGNB German Sustainable Building Council’s Annual Congress, CPEA participated in a pivotal international discussion on the EU Taxonomy’s role in the building sector—and why aligning approaches across markets is essential for progress.

In the session “CPEA & Taxonomy: Building a Common Language for Buildings,” experts Seema Issar and Ursula Hartenberger, together with Julie Emmrich (WGBC), Sebastian Krautzer (ATP sustain) explored how Green Building Councils, practitioners, and market actors can collaborate to translate the EU Taxonomy into practical strategies. The goal? To foster clarity, consistency, and collective action in sustainable building practices across Europe.
