Seminar 54 -- Building Labeling in Europe: European Standardization to Meet the Energy Performance Directive PDF

This product is a PDF that contains links to files that consist of PowerPoint slides synchronized with the audio-recording of the speaker (recorded presentation), PDF files of the slides, and audio only (mp3) as noted.

In the US, LEED, Energy Star, and ASHRAE’s bEQ are being used to label building energy performance. In the EU, countries follow EPBD. The session reviews the European initiatives to evaluate building energy performance and to couple energy use with environmental quality. This involves revision of several CEN standards of which some will be developed as combined ISO and CEN standards. Therefore the ongoing and planned activities and what is happening in Europe and other parts of the world is also relevant for North America.
