Increased Electrification in Buildings: PVs, Battery Storage, and E-Mobility – Impact on Fire Safety

University of Zagreb Faculty of Civil Engineering and the Croatian Association for Fire Protection (HUZOP) are organizing the 4^th international conference EU Fire Safety Day, which will take place on 21 and 22 May 2024 at the Westin Hotel, Zagreb, Croatia. The main goal of this conference is to draw the attention of international experts, stakeholders, and decision-makers to an unprecedented transformation of Europe's building stock due to increased electrification, including rooftop PV panel technology, recharging infrastructure in buildings, and batteries in cars.

The same organizers have already successfully organized three online EU Fire Safety Days 2021, 2022 and 2023. This is the first time this conference will be held onsite.

The previous conferences were always held on May 31. The date is not accidentally chosen; on May 31, 1731, a major fire occurred in Zagreb and engulfed its buildings. It showed that fire protection was and still is an important element of civil protection. Nowadays, May 31st is celebrated every year as the day of the City of Zagreb, the capital of Croatia.
