The Energy Performance of Buildings Directive and the NZEB 2020 target for new buildings
What is the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive?
The Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) has been in place for all European member states, including the UK, since 2010, with the latest update coming into effect in July 2018.
Defining the Future of Compliance
The compliance system for new developments is set to drastically change over the next 16 months. The consultations for Approved Documents L and F, which are expected to take place towards the end of 2019, will be the only opportunity for industry to support or appeal these changes, which have a high potential to heavily impact building design, HVAC specification and the carbon-focused mindset of the industry.
Decarbonising heat and what lessons have been learnt?
Decarbonising heat is seen as a key area to address if the UK is to achieve its net-zero 2050 target. The scale, complexity, and cost of the transition to low carbon heating technology means the industry needs time and support to adjust to the changes it faces. The much-anticipated regulatory framework and clear strategy for the energy transition process should provide a reliable platform to take on the challenges on our journey to a low carbon future.
