The Concept of the Individual Building Renovation Roadmap

An in-depth case study of four frontrunner projects

 

This report offers an overview of the process behind the creation of an Individual Building Renovation Roadmap and covers the key issues that need to be addressed to allow its development and implementation. Real-life examples based on four existing initiatives revolving around the concept of individual building renovation roadmaps and passports are used in this report to demonstrate how the different elements can be designed and implemented: Denmark (BetterHome), Flanders (Woningpas and EPC+), France ( Passeport Efficacité Énergétique) and Germany (Individueller Sanierungsfahrplan).

Current use of Energy Performance Certificates in 8 EU countries and potential links to iBRoad

 

The Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) introduced Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) with the aim to create more transparency about the energy performance of individual buildings. To date, the implementation of this instrument varies significantly across Europe in terms of scope, information, comparability and user-friendliness, limiting its acceptance by users as well as its market penetration.

The analysis of the status quo of  EPCs, energy audits and renovation activities in participating countries (Bulgaria, Belgium Flanders, Germany, Greece, Poland, Portugal, Romania and Sweden) is of great significance to the iBRoad project.

iBRoad Stakeholders' Meetings

With iBRoad being directly connected to the market, early involvement and engagement of stakeholders, through dialogue, is key for its success. For this reason, and while we are in the early stages of the iBRoad development, a series of meetings with concerned stakeholders are being organised in 9 European countries.
