Amending Regulation (EC) No 1080/2006 on the European Regional Development Fund as regards the eligibility of energy efficiency and renewable energy investments in housing

Regulation (EC) No 397/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 6 May 2009 amending Regulation (EC) No 1080/2006 on the ERDF as regards the eligibility of energy efficiency and renewable energy investments in housing.

The European Economic Recovery Plan encourages measures promoting the energy efficiency of buildings. This Regulation offers a framework for public investments in this area. National investment plans should be developed at the most appropriate territorial level (national, regional or local). Cohesion policy funding should support the measures taken by the poorest households.

Through this amendment the contribution of the ERDF to housing expenditure related to energy efficiency and renewable energies, is extended to all Member States. Other expenditure related to housing is to be limited to States which acceded after 1 May 2004. Article 7 of Regulation 1080/2006, which governs the eligibility of this expenditure, is amended accordingly.
