C OMMON GENERAL FRAMEWORK FOR THE CALCULATION OF ENERGY PERFORMANCE OF

BUILDINGS

(referred to in Article 43)

 2018/844 Art. 1.14 and Annex .1(a) (adapted)  new

• 1. 

  The energy performance of a building shall be determined on the basis of calculated or actual  metered  energy use and shall reflect typical energy use for space heating, space cooling, domestic hot water, ventilation, built-in lighting and other technical building systems.  Member States shall ensure that the typical energy use is representative of actual operating conditions for each relevant typology and reflects the typical user behaviour. Where possible, typical energy use and typical user behaviour shall be based on available national statistics, building codes and metered data. 

   new

Where metered energy is the basis for calculating the energy performance of buildings, the calculation methodology shall be capable of identifying the influence of the behaviour of occupants and the local climate, which shall not be reflected in the result of the calculation. Metered energy to be used for the purposes of calculating the energy performance of buildings shall require readings of at least hourly intervals and must differentiate between energy carriers.

Member States may use metered energy consumption under typical operating conditions to verify the correctness of the calculated energy use and enable comparison between calculated and actual performance. Metered energy consumption for the purposes of verification and comparison may be based on monthly readings.

 2018/844 Art. 1.14 and Annex .1(a) (adapted)  new

The energy performance of a building shall be expressed by a numeric indicator of primary energy use  per unit of reference floor area per year,  in kWh/(m 2 .y) for the purpose of both energy performance certification and compliance with minimum energy performance requirements. The methodology applied for the determination of the energy performance of a building shall be transparent and open to innovation.

Member States shall describe their national calculation methodology  based on Annex A  following the national annexes of the  key European  overarching standards  on energy performance of buildings  , namely  EN  ISO 52000-1,  EN ISO  52003-1,  EN ISO  52010-1,  EN ISO  52016-1, and  EN ISO  52018-1,  EN 16798-1 and EN 17423 or superseding documents  developed under mandate M/480 given to the European Committee for Standardisation (CEN). This provision shall not constitute a legal codification of those standards.

 new

Member States shall take the necessary measures to ensure that, where buildings are supplied by district heating or cooling systems, the benefits of such supply are recognised and accounted for in the calculation methodology through individually certified or recognised primary energy factors.

 2018/844 Art. 1.14 and Annex .1(b) (adapted)  new

• 2. 

  The energy needs  and energy use  for space heating, space cooling, domestic hot water, ventilation, lighting and other technical building systems shall be calculated  using hourly or sub-hourly time calculation intervals in order to account for varying conditions that significantly affect the operation and performance of the system and the indoor conditions, and  in order to optimise health, indoor air quality and comfort levels defined by Member States at national or regional level.

   new

Where product-specific regulations for energy-related products adopted under Regulation 2009/125/EC include specific product information requirements for the purpose of the calculation of energy performance under this Directive, national calculation methods shall not require additional information.

 2018/844 Art. 1.14 and Annex .1(b) (adapted)  new

The calculation of primary energy shall be based on primary energy factors, (distinguishing non-renewable, renewable and total)  or weighting factors per energy carrier, which  have to be recognised by the national authorities. Those primary energy factors  may be based on national, regional or local  information. Primary energy factors may be set on an  annual, and possibly also seasonal, or monthly,  daily or hourly basis  weighted averages or on more specific information made available for individual district  systems  system.

Primary energy factors or weighting factors shall be defined by Member States.  The choices made and data sources shall be reported according to EN 17423 or any superseding document. Member States may opt for an average EU primary energy factor for electricity established pursuant to Directive (EU) …/… [recast EED] instead of a primary energy factor reflecting the electricity mix in the country. 

In the application of those factors to the calculation of energy performance, Member States shall ensure that the optimal energy performance of the building envelope is pursued.

In the calculation of the primary energy factors for the purpose of calculating the energy performance of buildings, Member States may take into account renewable energy sources supplied through the energy carrier and renewable energy sources that are generated and used on-site, provided that it applies on a non-discriminatory basis.

 2018/844 Art. 1.14 and Annex .1(c) (adapted)  new

32a. For the purpose of expressing the energy performance of a building, Member States may define additional numeric indicators of total, non-renewable and renewable primary energy use, and of  operational  greenhouse gas emission  emissions  produced in kgCO 2 eq/(m 2 .y).

 2010/31/EU (adapted)

ANNEX IVIA

COMMON GENERAL FRAMEWORK FOR RATING THE SMART READINESS OF BUILDINGS

• 1. 

  The Commission shall establish the definition of the smart readiness indicator and a methodology by which it is to be calculated, in order to assess the capabilities of a building or building unit to adapt its operation to the needs of the occupant and of the grid and to improve its energy efficiency and overall performance.

The smart readiness indicator shall cover features for enhanced energy savings, benchmarking and flexibility, enhanced functionalities and capabilities resulting from more interconnected and intelligent devices.

The methodology shall take into account features such as smart meters, building automation and control systems, self-regulating devices for the regulation of indoor air temperature, builtin home appliances, recharging points for electric vehicles, energy storage and detailed functionalities and the interoperability of those features, as well as benefits for the indoor climate condition, energy efficiency, performance levels and enabled flexibility.

• 2. 

  The methodology shall rely on three key functionalities relating to the building and its technical building systems:

  (a) the ability to maintain energy performance and operation of the building through the adaptation of energy consumption for example through use of energy from renewable sources;

  (b) the ability to adapt its operation mode in response to the needs of the occupant while paying due attention to the availability of user-friendliness, maintaining healthy indoor climate conditions and the ability to report on energy use; and

  (c) the flexibility of a building’s overall electricity demand, including its ability to enable participation in active and passive as well as implicit and explicit demand response, in relation to the grid, for example through flexibility and load shifting capacities.

• 3. 

  The methodology may further take into account:

  (a) the interoperability between systems (smart meters, building automation and control systems, built-in home appliances, self-regulating devices for the regulation of indoor air temperature within the building and indoor air quality sensors and ventilations); and

  (b) the positive influence of existing communication networks, in particular the existence of high-speed-ready in-building physical infrastructure, such as the voluntary ‘broadband ready’ label, and the existence of an access point for multi-dwelling buildings, in accordance with Article 8 of Directive

  2014/61/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council 2 .

• 4. 

  The methodology shall not negatively affect existing national energy performance certification schemes and shall build on related initiatives at national level, while taking into account the principle of occupant ownership, data protection, privacy and security, in compliance with relevant Union data protection and privacy law as well as best available techniques for cyber security.

• 5. 

  The methodology shall set out the most appropriate format of the smart readiness indicator parameter and shall be simple, transparent, and easily understandable for consumers, owners, investors and demand-response market participants.

2 Directive 2014/61 i/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 15 May 2014 on measures to reduce the cost of deploying high-speed electronic communications networks (OJ L 155, 23.5.2014, p. 1).

The comparative methodology framework shall enable Member States to determine the energy  and emission  performance of buildings and building elements and the economic aspects of measures relating to the energy  and emission  performance, and to link them with a view to identifying the cost-optimal level.

The comparative methodology framework shall be accompanied by guidelines outlining how to apply this  that  framework in the calculation of cost-optimal performance levels.

The comparative methodology framework shall allow for taking into account use patterns, outdoor climate conditions  and their future changes according to best available climate science  , investment costs, building category, maintenance and operating costs (including energy costs and savings), earnings from energy produced, where applicable,  environmental and health externalities of energy use,  and disposal  waste management  costs, where applicable. It should be based on relevant European standards relating to this Directive.

The Commission shall also provide:

– guidelines to accompany the comparative methodology framework; these  those  guidelines will serve to enable the Member States to undertake the steps listed below;,

– information on estimated long-term energy price developments.

For the application of the comparative methodology framework by Member States, general conditions, expressed by parameters, shall be laid down at Member State level.

The comparative methodology framework shall require Member States to:

– define reference buildings that are characterised by and representative of their functionality and geographic location, including indoor and outdoor climate conditions. The reference buildings shall cover residential and non-residential buildings, both new and existing ones;,

– define energy efficiency measures to be assessed for the reference buildings. These  Those  may be measures for individual buildings as a whole, for individual building elements, or for a combination of building elements;,

– assess the final and primary energy need  and resulting emissions  of the reference buildings and the reference buildings with the defined energy efficiency measures applied;,

– calculate the costs (i.e. the net present value) of the energy efficiency measures (as referred to in the second indent) during the expected economic lifecycle applied to the reference buildings (as referred to in the first indent) by applying the comparative methodology framework principles.

By calculating the costs of the energy efficiency measures during the expected economic lifecycle, the cost-effectiveness of different levels of minimum energy performance requirements is assessed by the Member States. This  That  will allow the determination of cost-optimal levels of energy performance requirements.
