Fire Safe Europe welcomes Dan Jørgensen as the new European Commissioner-designate for Energy and Housing. His appointment is a pivotal moment to ensure that fire safety is integrated into both the energy and housing portfolios.



As Europe accelerates the deployment of sustainable technologies - from EV charging stations to solar panels - it is crucial to give fire safety due attention. By doing so, we can ensure that efforts to reduce carbon emissions do not inadvertently compromise the safety of our buildings and infrastructure.



In the housing sector, fire safety must be an integral element of both new construction and renovation efforts. As we push for affordable and energy-efficient homes, we need to ensure that fire risks are minimized, protecting both lives and investments. Resilient housing is about ensuring our homes are safe from all hazards, including fire.



We look forward to working with Commissioner-designate Jørgensen to prioritize fire safety across the EU’s housing and energy agendas.
