Establishment of a smart readiness indicator for buildings

Energy

This initiative will establish an optional instrument for rating the smart readiness of buildings, the “smart readiness indicator” (SRI). Smart readiness refers to adaptation capabilities of buildings with regard to operation, performance, fulfilment of users’ needs and demand flexibility. This initiative covers the definition of the SRI and the SRI calculation methodology. The implementation arrangements of the SRI in the European Union are addressed separately.

LightingEurope, 16 Jul 2020

The SRI offers a possibility to obtain significant energy and cost savings and to make advances in the comfort and wellbeing of building users. Nevertheless, we notice that the draft delegated and implementing acts on the SRI do not use this potential optimally and in some cases even deviate from…

European Ventilation Industry Association, 16 Jul 2020

The fact that the SRI, under the current EPBD is a voluntary measure, creates risks associated with fragmented implementation by the Member States. Many Member States will be very hesitant to implement a new administrative burden if it will cost the consumer money without a clear added value. As…

European Committee of Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Manufacturers, 14 Jul 2020

Eurovent supports the modernisation of the EPBD. The transposition by the Member States has seen a proliferation of EPBD calculation models. Because physics are the same across the globe, it would have been preferable to have a harmonised EPBD calculation method complemented by objective parameters…

European Solar-Shading Organisation vzw, 10 Jul 2020

The smart readiness indicator should also look deeper into interoperability of the systems but also in the different domains as they are interconnected in the building. As for now systems are still more standalone and do not take (sufficienctly) into account the effects of other systems or even…
