Check for airflow around the frame of windows inside. Caulking/spray insulation behind the moulding to fill gaps left between window and wall during last installation will help both mold and CC inefficiency issues.

Yeah, dehumidifier is on my shopping list.
Sadly my climate control isn't that fancy. I can only activate the fan of a electrical buffered heater (heats up over night with cheaper tariffs and stores the heat in some stones, which gets "accessed" when a fan is activated, when the room temperature drops under a set temperature)

But as this is our storage room (we didn't immediately need the room, so it's just cramped full with stuff...) the air flow surely is a problem.
Will need to clean the room anyway, so I can treat the areas with mold...

I have a dehumidifier but it consumes energy, which I think is ultimately going to come from Russia. Belgium is shutting down its nuclear power plants (2, iirc) and replacing them with 3 natural gas burning plants. Not sure about schedule.. maybe it already happened.

I didn’t know leaks exacerbated the condensation. I don’t think I have any noticeably big gaps but probably all the seams leak a bit. Maybe I should try to seal off entire windows with plastic film.

Drafts are a source of rapid temperature change which encourages condensation.
