This report aims to interpret all of the gathered perspectives and feedback in topical chapters to identify key features of next-generation user-centred EPCs.
This report addresses the key aim of the U-CERT project in the following points:
- Provides inputs for the development of the next-generation EPC schemes to be optimally user-centred and user-friendly,
- Encourages development and application of holistic, innovative, user-centred solutions,
- Interprets experience with the existing EPC schemes across the EU,
- Provides reference points for understanding the role (and potential) of EPCs in people’s
decision-making processes (e.g. on deep renovation), - Provides reference points for the development of U-CERT tools to encourage and support
widespread investments into the improvement of the Energy Performance of Buildings, - Provides insight into implications of EPCs and Energy performance of buildings-related policies,
including aspects of trust, relations between key stakeholders and dynamics of socio-cultural
the value ascribed to buildings and related energy performance aspects, and - Provides insights from a user perspective, creating space for sharing implementation experience
valuable to all stakeholders involved in the implementation of the next generation EPCs, which
is being applied in associated tasks facilitated and empowered by the EPB Center
