The actual performance of buildings: precious data for both citizens and System Operators

This webinar with smartEn took place on Thursday, 23 November, from 09h30 to 11h00. System Operators, building experts and market players exchanged on the actual performance of buildings and how a digitally-enabled evolution would further valorise the system-integration of new and renovated buildings.

Here’s a sneak peek of what was discussed:
• What’s new for smart and flexible buildings in light of the revised EPBD?
• Why is data on the actual performance of buildings so important for System Operators?
• What are some real-life projects that already facilitate this evolution?
