The OneClickRENO (OCR) and iEPB projects aim to enhance building energy efficiency and EPBD implementation. OCR develops automatic building renovation passports, while iEPB creates a common data model that integrates different EPB assessments.
The HARP database in Ireland tracks heating appliance efficiency, requiring new and replacement boilers to meet a 90% minimum efficiency standard since 2011.
In addition to the presentation of VIP 46, this webinar will discuss the specific applications for the regulation in Czech Republic and the United Kingdom. It will also present the equilibrium pressure model included in the EN 16798-7.
As Europe moves towards a more sustainable future, energy performance ratings are becoming a key driver in transforming the real estate market. Central to this shift is the Energy Performance Certificate (EPC), a policy instrument that not only certifies a building's energy efficiency but also seeks to incentivise investment in greener properties. The revised Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EU/2024/1275) aims to improve comparability of EPCs across Member States, as well as making them more reliable and digitalised. However, Europe's diverse building stock and the varying energy policies of Member States present significant challenges to these goals.
This study highlights the significant differences in Energy Performance Certificate frameworks across European countries, despite their common origin in the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive, emphasising the need for understanding these variations for effective EU-level implementation and innovation.
In BUILD UP we want that everyone feels involved. That is what the Topic of the Month is for, so all the community can contribute with articles, events and much more under the same topic. This month, the ToM is "Energy Certification and Energy Labelling of buildings”.
