What are some of the challenges to implementing a building renovation passport? - Data standardisation and integration from regional to national levels - Different definitions of what a building unit is - Making them understandable to non experts #TransfromingBuildings

What is the added value of a #building passport? - can provide a step by step guide to renovation for users who do not have all the finances to invest at once - has potential to avoid jargon and be more understandable to non experts in comparison to EPCs #TransformingBuildings

Vincenzo Corrado from Politecnico di Torino introduces round table 2 and TIMPAC’s vision for an enhanced EPC which includes better data quality and a broader set of parameters (holistic approach). #EPBD #NextGenEPC

Key message from the 2 round table on EPCs: indicators vs. complexity - we need a lot of different data and also interoperable systems that simplify the access to this data. i.e: Alexa is a complex system but even your grandma can use it. #NextGenEPC

.Alvaro Sicilia from ARC research group presents the final round table and TIMEPAC recommendations for improving building assessment through data integration, which includes the use of Building Information Modelling (BIM). #TransformingBuildings

In relation to BIM, we need to address the barriers posed by the software industry and create interoperable tools that work for everyone says Thomas Bednar from TU Wein

We now enter the presentation sessions, kicked off by Rolf Bastiaanssen from Bax with his insights into local levelised cost of energy and how to enhance EPCs and SRI with financial indicators. #NextGenEPC

Sabine Sint from TU Wein shares her research into seamless EPC data integration through open data models. #NextGenEPC

Pablo Gonzalez and Hedda Egerlid from Societat Orgànica share their paper on office buildings in Barcelona and if they are compliant with current #nZEB (nearly zero energy buildings) regulations. #EUGreenDeal

The second session of the paper presentations is underway focusing on Renovation Passports - David Masip from ETSAB says guidelines on building renovations need to be unified into a single multi-objective framework. #RenovationWave

Euralia Figuerola from Green Building Council España and Elftheria Touloupaki from Α.Π.Θ. share their work on renovation passports implemented in the frame of sister project iBRoad2EPC (follow-up to iBRoad project)

.Silvio De Nigris from Regione Piemonte presents their regional project GASLESS which aims to promote energy efficiency and transition to renewables in public buildings. More info: envipark.com/progetti-p/gas…

Attending the Timepac Project Final Conference today at ICAEN Over the past 3 years this European Commission project has been enhancing Energy Performance Certificates #EPC with reliable data, boosting insights on building renovation and renewable energy in 6 european demostration countries

The #SmartReadinessIndicator rates a building’s ability to use smart technologies to enhance #EnergyEfficiency. This provides a common framework for upgrading buildings’ #EnergyPerformance. SRI in practice 👉 europa.eu/!DgDkbn #EPBD #SmartBuildings

Everything you need to know to get started with the #SmartReadinessIndicator is available in our 3 training packages. Download the material to rate the smart readiness of buildings 🏠 here europa.eu/!X7v3wN or scan a QR code 👇 #EPBD #EnergyEfficiency
