Calling all building experts:
Have your say on the future of building certification and renovation with the TIMEPAC Survey
Help TIMEPAC define the next generation of building certification tools, methods and training needed to support the renovation of Europe’s building stock by taking part in the survey
As part of its mission to support Europe’s decarbonisation goals established in the European Green Deal, the TIMEPAC project is calling on all building experts to take part in its “GETTING READY FOR THE BUILDING RENOVATION WAVE” survey to help identify any obstacles or barriers in the implementation of new Energy Performance Certificates in accordance with the revised Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD).
The EPBD aims to establish minimum energy performance standards and includes tools such as building renovation plans to incentivise the private sector to upgrade the building stock.
Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) can be an effective tool for identifying which buildings need to be renovated and which measures can be taken. However, to make EPCs more effective, it is necessary to improve them through the use of more reliable data, such as actual energy consumption and performance, and better calculation and simulation tools, such as Building Information Modelling (BIM). Current certificates can be improved by incorporating a Smart Readiness Indicator (SRI) and sustainability indicators such as Level(s).
Through this 10-minute questionnaire you can help us define the next generation of building certification tools, methods and training needed to support the renovation of Europe’s building stock.
*The survey is available in the following languages: Catalá, Deutsch, Ελληνικά, Español, Hrvatski, Italiano and Slovenščina.
