Energy Efficiency Engineering

Description

The Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is based on following EU Directives:

The EU Directive 2010/31/EU of 19 May 2010 on the Energy Performance of Buildings (amended by Directive 2018/844 of 30/05/2018) requires the Member States, the establishment of a measurable system of Buildings Energy Performance (BEP) or a Certification of Energy Performance (CEP). This Directive requires that each EU member state must set up a specific calculation method to achieve the BEP requirements and to certify the energy performance of buildings.

The energy efficiency EU Directive 2012/27/EU of 25/10/2012, in particular the article n°5.

The EU Directive 2009/28/EC of 23/04/2009 on the use and promotion of the energy produced from renewable sources.

The PEB certificate expresses the energy performance of a PEB unit (public buildings, residential and industry buildings, apartments, etc...) by means of several indicators such as energy class, global and specific consumption of primary energy, renewable energy, CO2 and other greenhouse gas emissions and contains recommendations for improvement.

The Belgian Energy Performance Certificate is the perfect example helping Belgium as a Member State to achieve its energy efficiency targets. It can inspire the authorities in Kosovo, whose ultimate goal is to join the EU, to prepare the legislation that would incorporate the entire EPC in the procedures for new construction or renovation of buildings. This would be one much appreciated way to prepare at best to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve the energy performance of the residential, tertiary and public buildings in Kosovo.
