In the context of the ongoing public consultation on the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD), EuroACE (the European Alliance of Companies for Energy Efficiency in Buildings) is hosting a series of three webinars focusing on different aspects of the EPBD which have the potential to considerably increase energy renovation rates in the EU. The series, entitled “Future-proof EPBD: let’s deliver beyond the Renovation Wave!”, will feature conversations around the development of Minimum Energy Performance Standards (MEPS), the update of Energy Performance Certificates and other buildings information tools such as the Digital Building Logbook and Smart Readiness Indicator as a way to boost digitalisation of our buildings while improving their data.
