Topic of the month
The Topic of the Month explores how certification frameworks can support better design choices, reveal untapped improvement potential, assess economic viability through life-cycle costing, and connect energy performance with comfort, resilience, smartness and long-term value, helping buildings become more efficient, future-proof and aligned with EU climate objectives.

Popular on BUILD UP
Building certification in Europe is moving beyond energy performance to include renovation planning, smart readiness and sustainability. How are regulatory and voluntary frameworks evolving? How could interoperability support building decisions and the decarbonisation of Europe’s building stock?
Europe’s renovation ambitions involve decisions taken building by building. At BUILD UP’s latest online event, policymakers, finance specialists and local practitioners explored what it takes to turn the EPBD recast into projects on the ground.
