This is stipulated in the sectoral strategy for the renewal of the national real estate fund in the long term for the period 2025-2050, which was approved at a government meeting on September 17, 2025.
The Strategy and Roadmap were developed with the support of UNDP Moldova, the Energy Community Secretariat, the EU and the Government of Denmark. The document contains measures to improve the energy efficiency of public, private and residential buildings by 2050 with the aim of transforming them into buildings with almost zero energy consumption.
In this context, the Financing Program of the Fund for Energy Efficiency in the Residential Sector of Moldova (FEERM), approved by the Government in April 2024 and managed by the National Center for Sustainable Energy (CNED), envisages resource mobilization of about 1.4 billion lei between 2024 and 2027 to support the renovation of residential buildings.
Moldova has committed to the Energy Community to reduce its energy consumption by 0.8% annually until 2030, compared to 2019-2022.
To achieve this target, 1.4 million m2 or 1.35% of the total real estate stock must be renovated annually. These renovations should result in a minimum 60% reduction in the energy consumption of each modernized building.
Moldova’s real estate stock consists of 87% residential buildings. The remaining 13% are office, public, social and retail premises.
Buildings are the largest consumers of energy – 53% of final consumption. More than 75% of residential buildings in Moldova were built before 1990, i.e. at a time when energy efficiency requirements were minimal.
