5 The building directive 40 % of EU s energy use 36 % of EU s CO 2 emissions Cost-effective energy savings potential: ~30 % by % of GDP, 8 % of employment and 2 trillion annual turnover Key EU legislation: Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD, 2002/91/EC) 9 Energy Performance of Buildings Directive EPBD (2002/91/EC) Fundamental role of legislation Requirements - for Member States to specify and implement: An integrated methodology to rate the energy performance of buildings Minimum energy performance standards for new and for existing buildings that undergo major renovation Energy performance certificates for buildings Regular inspections of heating and air-conditioning systems 10/12

of legislation Requirements - for Member States to specify and implement: An integrated methodology to rate the energy performance of buildings Minimum energy performance

6 EPBD Energy Performance Certificate Example for Member States room for manoeuvre: 11/12 Energy Performance of Buildings Directive recast(1) Elimination of the 1000 m 2 threshold for existing buildings when they undergo a major renovation Eliminating/lowering of the threshold also for -Displayof Energy Performance Certificates in public buildings - Assessment on installation of alternative systems for new build Minimum energy performance requirements for new buildings and major renovations: Benchmarking to achieve cost-optimal levels 12/12

threshold also for -Displayof Energy Performance Certificates in public buildings - Assessment on installation of alternative systems

7 Energy Performance of Buildings Directive recast(2) Strengthening the role and the quality of energy performance certificates i.e. quality checks and use of the performance indicator in advertisements for sale or rent Strengthening the role and the quality of inspections (HVAC) Addressing the public sector to act as leading example Stimulating the market entry of low/zero carbon and energy buildings, such as passive houses Clarification/simplification of provisions and definitions 13/12 Covenant of Mayors 550+ (June 2009) 14
