Description

Overview of the EU-27 building policies and programs
The report provides a brief overview of buildings policy frameworks in the EU-27 countries, including building codes requirements, enforcement and compliance, renewable energy use in buildings, nearly zero energy buildings policies and main economic instruments in place in the EU-27 countries.

A particular focus has been given to the 9 target countries of the ENTRANZE project (Austria, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Romania and Spain). On the whole, the report comprises dedicated factsheets for each ENTRANZE target country, presenting national and regional policies, energy standards in the building sector (e.g. building codes requirements), updates on implementation status of EPCs, nearly zero energy buildings, cost-optimality, as well as financial support programs for new low energy buildings/passive houses and building retrofits. The country factsheets are built based on information provided by ENTRANZE consortium partners and on the CA-EPBD report from 2010 on implementing the Energy performance of Buildings Directive.
