This post includes the following reports:
- Insights from testing of the Smart Readiness Indicator methodology for integration in EPC schemes. This report includes a description of the Smart Readiness Indicator and both the final X-TENDO version of the calculation spreadsheet and the EU-officially endorsed version of the SRI calculation spreadsheet, as well as a description of the main differences between both versions. The report is also accompanied by results of an analysis of the input data required for the X-TENDO SRI compared to EPC input data and that of other X-tendo features. A summary of the main outcomes obtained from in-building testing concludes the report.
- Concrete implementation of new energy performance certificates features: testing and results in nine countries. This report summarises the outcomes of the testing activities for each of the ten features in one or several implementing countries. This is mainly based on the analysis of the evaluation questionnaires filled out by the implementing partners and the content of the testing results reports. The questionnaires hereby consist of general questions along the testing steps, questions on testing time and related costs, an evaluation against defined cross-cutting criteria (Quality and Reliability, User-friendliness, Economic feasibility, and Consistency with ISO/CEN standards) and final thoughts.
- Implementation guidelines and replicability potential of the innovative feature for the next generation EPCs. This report brings together the outputs of the evaluation of the test projects alongside the insight from end-users and stakeholders. It includes estimations of (1) the barriers and drivers for the wide uptake of the feature, (2) the effects of the wider implementation of the developed innovative feature of EPCs in Europe and (3) the necessary next steps to implement the innovative feature in the certification schemes around Europe.
