As our experts keep working on the development and implementation strategies for the EPB Standards, their research proves valuable and we are proud to showcase it as best practices for any specific situation that may come across our collaborator’s building needs.
To showcase our experts’ diverse capabilities on the practical implementation of the EPB Standards, we have uploaded a new “batch” of Case Studies on the epb.center website, in our goal to make it into a comprehensive knowledge platform.
You can read all the newest available Case Studies on the dedicated Newsletter, or directly on the epb.center website, here.
Interested but not sure how you can implement the set of EPB Standards in your country, or in your company?
Our EPB experts will be happy to learn about your requirements and offer you detailed guidance and consultancy on the completion of National Annexes, in-depth calculation methodologies and many other hands-on challenges you may face in the implementation of EPB Standards.
Together, we can improve the energy performance of our buildings!
Watch our series of webinars on the EPB standards!
A series of 10 webinars and a few short videos on a variety of specific subjects related to the EPB standards was organized throughout 2020 and early 2021 by BUILD UP in cooperation with EPB Center’s experts under the scope of the Service Contract with EU DG ENER.
A set of meteorological data (a Typical Meteorological Year, TMY), with data values for every hour in a year for a given geographical location, can be generated using a tool developed and made available by the EC Joint Research Centre (JRC).
Now, the EPB Center has created a tool to convert such a JRC-TMY data set into the format that is needed as input for the demo XLS on (EN) ISO 52010-1.

What do we do?
The EPB Center activities are to plan, coordinate and guide the process of promoting the implementation and use, maintenance and further development of the set of EPB standards and safeguard the coherence of their technical content. Continued coordination is essential as the maintenance and further development of the individual EPB standards is carried out by the various individual Technical Committees of both CEN and ISO.
Other activities EPB Center can provide are, for instance: linking the EPB standards with ECODESIGN, supporting the implementation of EPBD in national legal frameworks, codes and building traditions and implementing the EPB standards in the ISO set of standards. All activities focus on achieving uniformity, flexibility and sustainability as well as cost and risk reductions in the built environment.
