tunES

Last week tunES had a two-day productive meeting in Rome, Italy. Energy Agencies and Technical Support Team gathered to present and discuss identified national problems related to #EPC implementation and development and the set objectives. We improved the first iteration of policy measures during a workshop. The Agencies presented their status of the policy paper. The discussions will help to improve the guidance to be shared publically and feed back into the policy design by each Agency.

tunES presents at two sessions at Sustainable Places Conference 2024. We present the #BetterRegulation approach being conducted with national agencies and our practice collection with the #NextGenEPC cluster. The Sustainable Places Conference is an annual conference that aims to foster networking and clustering between multidisciplinary experts, working towards more sustainable places. Representing tunES, Georg Vogt will be a speaker at both workshops on 24 September. The morning session will be dedicated to the presentation of tools for the (smart) energy efficiency of buildings. tunES will present how #BRG Toolbox is used in preparation of 7 national policy measure packages. Details about the session: https://lnkd.in/emc5-F4h In the afternoon session, tunES together with other EU projects collaborating in the #NextGenEPC cluster will discuss EU-wide transposition and practical implementation of Energy Performance of Buildings Directive recast. More details: https://lnkd.in/eebi9BAh Looking forward to seeing you, Georg stands ready for meetups on the B2B platform! 9:00-12:30 ‘EPBD Implementation: Smartness for Energy Efficiency – tools for buildings and their users’ 14:00-17:30 ‘EPBD Implementation: Facilitated & enhanced by the projects of the Next Gen EPC cluster’ Registration: https://lnkd.in/dYDBmhC #epc #sri #building #energyefficiency #SustainablePlaces2024 #SP2024 R2M Solution | R2M Solution France

On 22 May, tunES project successfully hosted the event 'Tuning EPC and SRI. Practices and methods to analyse national challenges'. The discussions on EPC and SRI provided insights into overcoming national challenges in energy performance. At the event, Georg Vogt introduced the tunES approach and the key outputs of the project. Francesca Pagliaro and Manuela Chriti representing national Energy Agencies shared enlightening examples of national EPC Problem Trees. A big thank you to all speakers for their invaluable contributions: roberta boniotti for great introduction of ENEA and Mediterranean Association of national agencies João Cleto for presenting EnR Building Working Group activities and plans in EPBD as well as the SRI2MARKET assessment tool Katarina Kosutova for sharing with us the support actions provided by the SRI support team Andrei Vladimir Lițiu for showing the results on intergation of SRI, EPC and other tools Sara Momi for presenting the SmarterEPC Hub for EPC and SRI professionals. Thank you to all participants for your engaging discussions and eagerness to drive progress in the field of energy performance of buildings.

📢 Reminder: Join us today at 14:30 for the tunES event "Tuning EPC and SRI. Practices and methods to analyse national challenges". The aims of the event are to - share and discuss the existing practices for EPC and SRI as starting points for national implementation - explain the tunES policy approach in applying Better Regulation Guidelines invite interested parties to become a follower - share and discuss useful tools by other projects to test SRI and (nationally) new EPC elements - connect stakeholders to facilitate an ambitious and smooth national implementation. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/gzvemagP

🎥 New Video Alert! 🎉 We've just uploaded a new video on our YouTube channel showcasing the highlights from our recent Smart Readiness Indicator Joint Event, held on March 7, 2024, in Brussels! The video captures the whole day, which was full of enriching discussions and significant networking opportunities that brought together #experts and #stakeholders across the #Energy and #SmartBuilding sectors. 🔹 The day began with the #SRI Platform 4th Plenary Meeting, where discussions centered on the technical, regulatory, and implementation aspects of the #Smart #Readiness #Indicator, along with updates on EU policy and Member States' progress. Later, the day continued with expert talks and panel discussions. And that's not all! The event featured the SRI Projects Exhibition, including the projects: Smart Square Project, #SRI2MARKET, easySRI, SRI-ENACT, SmartLivingEPC, tunES, iBECOME project, iEPB EU project, SmarterEPC, CHRONICLE offering a glimpse into the future of smart buildings in Europe! 🚀 In collaboration with CINEA - European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency, DG Energy, and the Smart Square Project, the event was a convergence of ideas and innovations. 🎥 Watch the full video: https://lnkd.in/dMmCnHZ4 Special thanks to the contributors: Stefan Moser, Sylvain Robert, Pierre-Antoine Vernon, Brigitte J., Paul Waide, Régis Decorme, Paris Fokaides, Dimosthenis Ioannidis, Dimitrios Athanasiou, Georg Vogt, Dimitrios Ntimos, Andrei Vladimir Lițiu, Cecile Barrere PhD, Apostolos Arsenopoulos, Samy Iousef.   👉 Like, Comment, and Share to spread the word about the Smart Readiness Indicator!

empirica Communication and Technology Research and tunES as part of NextGenEPC cluster lead by EPB Center are hosting an #energyefficiency policy session at #EUSEW24. The discussion will be dedicated to EU-wide transposition and practical implementation of Energy Performance of Buildings Directive recast. Representing tunES, Georg Vogt will offer insights in how Member States can utilise evidence from research projects crossCert Project, EPC-RECAST, Horizon 2020 iBRoad2EPC project, TIMEPAC, EUB SuperHub, CHRONICLE , SmartLivingEPC, iEPB EU project, SmarterEPC, EPBD.wise. We will describe how seven Energy Agencies ENEA, Austrian Energy Agency, Centre for Renewable Energy Sources and Saving (CRES), The Polish National Energy Conservation Agency (KAPE), Energy Institute Hrvoje Požar, Jozef Stefan Institute, ÉMI Nonprofit Kft. use the Better Regulation Guideline methods to optimise national Energy Performance Certificate implementation. More about the session: https://lnkd.in/eEMf-7Xv Thanks to Andrei Vladimir Lițiu, Afroditi Psatha for joint efforts. #EUSEW24 Policy Conference is the biggest conference dedicated to renewables and efficient energy use in Europe. Sessions will cover topics related to net-zero technologies, cities and citizens, renewables, energy efficiency, and international cooperation.

The #tunES project has launched a survey on future of #EPC and #SRI! The results supports 7 national Energy Agencies in implementing the EPBD recast. We aim to fully understand the current national situation, identify problems, and design suitable and impactful policy measures.💡 Please fill the survey: 🔗 https://lnkd.in/eP4kck4T It will take less than 15 minutes. Your honest opinions are crucial for shaping the future of building certification tools and techniques in Europe. #LIFEprogramme #LIFEproject #EUGreenDeal #EnergyEfficiency #EPBD #SRI #EPC #survey

I can only add my part to this perfect post. With tunES we bring in the policy perspective and the implementation of #EPC / #SRI recast in Member States. Since the situations - especially regarding of EPCs - differ between Member States they all face unique challenges which will need slightly different implementation. We collect the practices already trialled and through exchange between energy agencies ensure mistakes are not repeated and opportunities are utilised fully. For this purpose, we deploy a streamlined version of the #BRG (Better Regulation Guideline) on national level. The complementary spirit with SmarterEPC with Cecile Barrere, Inès Elisabeth Kahin and iEPB EU project with Andrei Vladimir Lițiu is a really good experience especially as empirica Communication and Technology Research just joined the long-term SRI effort with a dedicated project. Together, we seek how we complement each other, and we all want the same: make buildings smarter to improve efficiency, comfort and integration with the grid. All contributing to better health, reducing climate impact lifting potential in our enormous building stock.
