Tijd om te handelen voor een betere toekomst
De richtlijn betreffende de energieprestatie van gebouwen (EPBD) is van invloed op gebouwen in alle EU-landen.Bij Siemens kunnen wij u helpen om aan de laatste voorschriften te voldoen.
Gebouwen zijn verantwoordelijk voor 40% van het energieverbruik in de EU.
Statistieken als deze zijn de reden dat de richtlijn betreffende de energieprestatie van gebouwen (EPBD) in 2018 voor de derde keer is gewijzigd. De richtlijn is aangescherpt om de renovatie van gebouwen aan te sturen in de richting van slimme infrastructuur en het eindverbruik van energie te verminderen, teneinde de EU-doelstellingen inzake het koolstofarm maken van de economie te verwezenlijken.
Voldoet u aan de EPBD?
De bijgewerkte EPBD is in 2020 in werking getreden. Elke EU-lidstaat heeft nu de EPBD omgezet in zijn eigen nationale wetgeving en een langetermijnstrategie voor de renovatie van zijn gebouwenbestand ontwikkeld. Er zijn kleine variaties tussen de lidstaten, maar alle nationale wetten volgen dezelfde hoofdlijnen.
Existing buildings
For all existing non-residential buildings with a heating, ventilation or cooling system having an output higher than 290 kilowatts the requirements include retrofitting of the system with a building automation and control system (BACS) by 2025 with the following capabilities:
- Continuously monitoring, logging, analysing and allowing for the adjustment of energy use
- Benchmarking the building’s energy efficiency, detecting losses in efficiency of technical building systems, and informing the person responsible for the facilities or technical building management about opportunities for energy efficiency improvement
- Allowing communication with connected technical building systems and other appliances inside the building and being interoperable with technical building systems across different types of proprietary technologies, devices and manufacturers.
Residential buildings should be equipped with continuous electronic monitoring that measures systems’ efficiency and informs building owners or managers in case of faults or if servicing is necessary, to ensure optimum generation, distribution, storage and use of energy.
Such equipment above (BACS, monitoring) exempts from otherwise mandatory regular inspections.
Major renovations
For such, the directive drives local legislation as follows:
- In terms of building design, minimal energy performance levels must be met after renovations, as well as standards for healthy indoor climate conditions and for fire safety
- As to technical building infrastructure, installation of self-regulating devices for the separate regulation of the temperature in each room or, where justified, in a designated heated zone of the building unit
- Consider the installation of self-regulating devices for the separate regulation of the temperature in each room
- With respect to promoting electromobility, install a minimum number of electric vehicle charging points for parking spaces and/or cable conduits for future installations
- Improve the transparency of energy performance certificates by ensuring that all necessary parameters for calculations, both for certification and minimum energy performance requirements, are set out and applied consistently.
New constructions
For new buildings the criteria are both more comprehensive and more detailed, leading to a higher energy efficiency standard. In this context, Siemens can provide support with the technical infrastructures – please contact us for more information.
