Innovative Handling EPC Data

One Stop Shops

One-stop-shops are seen as key means to reduce barriers and transaction costs providing information such as available support schemes and services such as technical advice to homeowners, link to the marketplace, enhanced recommendations, among others. Obviously, these functionalities of one-stop-shops would highly benefit from being linked to EPCs.

X-tendo documents and describes approaches to set up or upgrade one-stop-shops and link EPC data into it to boost the energy renovation market.

Introduction

Introductory report
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.

Methodological approaches

Exploring methodologies and concepts for the implementation of new energy performance certificates features for better data handling
This report describes the methodologies and concepts for the technical implementation of the innovative data handling featureone-stop shops. It also presents in detail the country-specific implementation of the developed methodologies in the X-tendo target countries.

Calculation procedures

Concrete implementation of new energy performance certificates features: testing and results in nine 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.

Recommendations for Implementation

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