T-4A1a-TE-5 - Shift to biofuel heating in multi-family buildings
Background¶
IPCC WG3 definition: .
Oil boilers in homes are being replaced by biofuel boilers that are fuelled by, for example, wood or wood pellets.
Sustainability Category: Green¶
This transition element substantially contributes to climate change mitigation through significant greenhouse gas reductions, carbon sequestration, or enabling the transition to net-zero emissions. The transition element aligns with science-based pathways to limit global warming and should be prioritized for investment and expansion.
