Scope
The main scope was to raise awareness/promote, collect feedback and explore use cases on the U-CERT digital tools while also presenting the overall contribution of U-CERT in the evolution process of Building Performance Assessment and Certification at both EU and national level.
The content was tailored to building professionals illustrating the practical implementation of U-CERT digital tools on the U-CERT case studies and how this creates value to be swiftly captured in day-to-day activities by both designers and installers.
The U-CERT digital tools facilitate the convergence of building performance calculation methodologies leveraging the set of CEN/ISO EPB standards and enable the inclusion, next to asset rating only, of measured building performance and building operational rating (normalized measured building performance) creating complementing/new services that building professionals can swiftly include in their existing offering or expand it.
Audience
REHVA Member Associations / Training Providers, Trainers, Building technology manufacturers, Software developers, National Standards Bodies, Designers, Installers, Facility Managers
Expected results
The workshop was meant to facilitate and support the commercial roll-out of the U-CERT digital tools within the REHVA network. In addition to capturing the essence and added value of the U-CERT digital tools and their value proposition for the supply and demand side alike, exchanging and collecting feedback from the audience, the workshop paved the pathway towards EU-wide and beyond coverage for building performance digital tools based on the set of EPB standards.
