A machine learning-based model significantly enhances energy efficiency in green buildings by accurately predicting and reducing energy consumption for cooling and heating.

This report describes the IT implementations of the iBRoad2EPC back-end tool.

The Life Cycle Global Warming Potential factsheet from the World Green Building Council provides guidance on EPBD measures to reduce buildings' total carbon emissions, including a timeline, checklist, and recommendations for effective national regulations.

Advanced building facades can reduce energy consumption through cutting-edge fabrication techniques that enhance solar and thermal heat management.

This publication is an EU roadmap proposing concrete measures to maximise the uptake of iBRoad2EPC schemes to achieve the EU’s decarbonisation goals.

Soon after the release of its Planning Framework, the Regio1st LIFE-CET project is now releasing a guidance helping regional energy planners in Europe to develop and implement sustainable, cost-effective energy strategies while prioritising energy savings in buildings and energy efficiency solutions in line with the EE1st principle.

National Building Renovation Plans (NBRPs) and zero-emission buildings (ZEBs) are recent additions to the revised Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD 2024/1275). This report examines the policy requirements for implementing NBRPs and ZEBs in the focus countries of the EPBD.wise project: Bulgaria, Greece, Hungary, Poland, Romania, and Ukraine.

EAE’s Energy Efficiency Guide is a meta-study that summarises relevant facts and figures about the energy efficiency of Europe’s building stock, relevant legislation, technical developments and how ETICS contribute to achieving Europe’s environmental, economic and social objectives. It condenses the evidence of numerous global, European and national scientific studies and provides recommendations on what can be done to triple the number of buildings undergoing deep or staged deep renovations or new buildings to become net carbon neutral by 2050.

Minimum Energy Performance Standards (MEPS) are new policy components introduced in Article 9 of the revised Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD 2024/1275). This report examines the policy requirements for implementing MEPS in the focus countries of the EPBD.wise project: Bulgaria, Greece, Hungary, Poland, Romania, and Ukraine.

Renovation Passports are a newly introduced feature in the updated Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD 2024/1275). This report examines the policy requirements related to the implementation of Renovation Passports in the focus countries of the EPBD.wise project: Bulgaria, Greece, Hungary, Poland, Romania, and Ukraine.
