That's what the EU is doing for about 15-20 years already, with ever more stringent rules for new buildings. It's not all low hanging fruits though, as the buildings get more to zero energy demand, the construction has to be more

I don't see how is that relevant. When for example PV energy is abundant and cheap enough to power green hydrogen manufacture, then it's a game of scale, not thermodynamical efficiency.
