The conference was held at the MagNet Community House in the centre of Budapest, which hosts programmes, presentations and discussions focusing on community and social initiatives, sustainability and culture. All of this is offered in one of the most beautiful palaces on Andrassy Avenue, offering a varied, comfortable and technically equipped venue, of which we chose the most spacious room, as we were expecting a minimum of 120 people. The conference was hybrid, there was an online broadcasting of the conference for people who were following the conference online. Since there were foreign presenters and guests as well the conference was interpreted into Hungarian and English as well. The title of the conference was: After the soaring energy bills and before renovation grants – what next for residential energy efficiency?
