By providing distributed intelligence, eu.bac members’ products, systems and services ensure that the built environment is ready and able to respond to smart grid signals, demands and supplies.
The association represents some 85% of the European manufacturers of products and systems for home and building automation. eu.bac has founded the European Association of Energy Services Companies (eu.esco) for promoting Energy Performance Contracts as the sustainable solution for improving energy efficiency in existing buildings by using the guaranteed energy savings to pay for the installation.

The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.
1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
