Brief report giving an overall evaluation of the feature and describing the basic concept, the methods behind, existing good practices and how to implement it.

This report describes the methodologies and concepts for the technical implementation of the innovative data handling feature enhanced recommendations. It also presents in detail the country-specific implementation of the developed methodologies in the X-tendo target countries.

This report provides the summary of the outcomes of the testing activities for each of the 10 features in one or several implementing countries. This is mainly based on the analysis of the evaluation questionnaires filled out by the implementing partners, but also on 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.

This report describes the tools and IT-components of the proposed calculation and data handling procedures for the feature enhanced recommendations. It provides the explanation to the calculation spread sheets and guidelines.

This material consists of the excel spreadsheet and user guidelines for the X-tendo feature “enhanced recommendations”. It calculates the EPC recommendations in a measure-by-measure approach. For each measure, the specific recommendation, a quantitative assessment of non-energy benefits and the ranges of costs are provided. The tool aims to demonstrate how to automatically enhance EPCs’ recommendations which could be  incorporated into national EPC calculation software.

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 in order to implement the innovative feature in the certification schemes around Europe.
