Next generation energy performance certificates and deep renovation

Perhaps this is the shortest review of the year you will read these days – 2020 was different.

Nevertheless, with a lot of contribution and zest for action from QualDeEPC partners, the project has consistently developed new output and prepared the events for further project progress. The main result published this year is the Green paper on good practice in EPC assessment, certification, and use that describes the following 7 draft proposals for enhanced EPCs and EPC schemes supporting deep renovation and to be further discussed in the upcoming QualDeEPC EU and national stakeholder workshops in January 2021:

  1. Improving the recommendations for renovation provided on the EPCs toward deep energy renovation
  2. Online tool for comparing EPC recommendations to deep energy renovation recommendations
  3. Creating Deep Renovation Network Platforms
  4. Regular mandatory EPC assessor training on assessment and recommendations required for certification/accreditation and registry
  5. High user-friendliness of the EPC
  6. Voluntary/mandatory advertising guidelines for EPCs
  7. Improving compliance with the mandatory use of EPCs in real estate advertisements
