Assessment and Improvement of the EPBD Impact (for new buildings and building renovation)
ASIEPI wanted to give input to the envisaged update of the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD),to the reporting of building related performances in the context of the Energy Services Directive and to the implementation of the measures foreseen in the EU Action Plan for Energy Efficiency.
The objectives of ASIEPI were:
- To develop a concept for intercomparison and benchmarking of EPBD requirements in the Member States (MS);
- To obtain a good overview how compliance and control of legislation is done in the individual MS with suggestions for improvement;
- To raise awareness about the difficulties and possible solutions for:
-
limiting thermal bridges
-
improvement of building airtightness and summer comfort
-
using the EPBD implementation as driving force for innovation in energy efficient technologies.
The focus of the work is not on the development of technical solutions, but on the awareness raising about problems and solutions and on the optimisation of the effectiveness of the regulations. The activities are carried out through close interaction with the market actors who will be involved and addressed through targeted dissemination activities.
