A great General Assembly past week, 22-24 October, for the consortium of SmarterEPC project co-funded by the LIFE Programme ! It marked the 3rd meeting in person since its kick-off in October 2023, meaning we are in the core phase of the project 😎 Very fruitful exchanges were lead by our coordinator, Sophie Dourlens-Quaranta - R2M Solution France Team on ongoing activities like: 📌 The #SmarterEPCHub, a unique online platform under design by Centre for Research & Technology Hellas (CERTH) with the support of R2M Solution. The Hub addresses EPC and SRI assessors in making the best out of EPC and SRI tools derived from EU-funded projects, like #SmartReadyGO! powered by Smart Square Project, the #SRI2MARKET one, as well as the tools by SmartLivingEPC, D2EPC, easySRI and the methodology offered by U-CERT PROJECT 💻 📌 Existing policies and practices on EPC and SRI to certify a building in each EU Member States. For EPB Center the goal is to be 100% aligned with the EPBD IV requirements in the near future. On EPC we start from the #EPCAtlas, set up by Euphyia Tech LTD. Visit it already now: https://lnkd.in/dGVsWk_r We also coplanned upcoming activities, like the #training of assessors lead by EPB Center, the #qualitymanagement process to guarantee consistent EPC and SRI results by R2M Solution and #validation of the advanced EPC and SRI tools in a selection of real buildings across the EU, by DEMO Consultants BV with Caverion and #OpsisResearch. Last but not least: we have been hosted in the enchanting Delft NL! Thanks again Mija Sušnik and the wonderful team of DEMO Consultants BV for the nice meeting! 😊 Sophie Dourlens-Quaranta Cecile Barrere PhD Igor PEREVOZCHIKOV Inès Elisabeth Kahin Paraskevas Koukaras Nikos Tsalikidis Andrei Vladimir Lițiu Paris Fokaides Sara Momi Christos Pampidis Michela Zabaglia André van Delft, MSc Mija Sušnik Davide Calcinari Ansidei Aleksi Vuorenmaa Sofia-Natalia Boemi Stavros Spyridakos CINEA - European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency #smartbuildings #energyefficiency #EPBDrecast

One unique Hub with digital tools for combined Energy Performance Certificates and SRI ratings for buildings in Europe.
About us
Smarter EPC will offer access to a unique, open Hub offering a variety of tools for issuing innovative Energy Performance Certificates (EPC) and Smart Readiness Indicators Assessment (SRI). The goal is to bring assessors and stakeholders of the construction community closer to recently developed tools by EU R&I projects (gathered under the NextGenEPC cluster and the SRI cluster). Through the Hub, also common EPC and SRI certificates will be harmonised and joint building inspection procedures will be validated for the export of EPC and SRI certificates through the adaptation of existing European standards. Besides, synergic programs for training and certification of auditors on the two schemes will position assessors to competitive standards. The consortium will also support national and EU policies adopted so far for promoting the SRI (see the EU SRI Platform, the national SRI test committees, and the initiatives towards making SRI assessment mandatory for buildings over 290 kW by 2026, etc.). Coordinated by: R2M Solution SAS, France Reference: LIFE22-CET-Smarter-EPC/101121034 Start Date: 01/10/2023 End Date: 30/09/2026 Funded by the European Union.

Thanks again to our partners R2M Solution France, R2M Solution Italy and Euphyia Tech LTD for having promoted our project at the 2nd Edition of the #SRI Joint Event, hybrid and live from Brussels last Tuesday 8 October. The momentum for the Smart Readiness Indicator is growing and SmarterEPC is happy to contribute! 😊 LIFE Programme CINEA - European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency #SRIClusterProjects #smartnessinbuildings #digitalforaudit #decarbonize
Today, we are at the Smart Readiness Indicator 2nd Joint Event to discuss the current state of development on the SRI topic. At R2M Solution R2M Solution France, we are committed to creating connections between research and the market. The challenges of the new EPBD, such as the SRI and BLoG, are crucial for the coming years. But what is the SRI? The Smart Readiness Indicator (SRI) is an indicator introduced by the European Union to assess the "smartness" level of buildings, meaning their ability to adapt to the needs of occupants and interact with energy networks, thereby improving energy efficiency and indoor comfort. The SRI measures a building's ability to use digital and automation technologies to optimize energy management, integrate renewable energy sources, and enhance the quality of life for users. It is calculated based on criteria such as the management of heating, cooling, lighting, ventilation, and the ability to interact with the electrical grid. The goal of the SRI is to encourage the adoption of smart solutions and promote more sustainable and flexible buildings, contributing to the EU's energy transition towards a low-carbon future. If you are interested in this topic, let's get in touch! Thank you to all the partners we are working with on these topics!

🏢 Buildings are one of the largest sources of #CarbonEmissions, and it’s clear that we need to act now to reverse this trend. While #BuildingRenovation is a long-term and costly process, there is a faster, smarter solution: 💡 leveraging #smart technologies to control #energy consumption. That's where the #SmartReadinessIndicator (SRI) ✅ comes into play. #SRI helps evaluate how #buildings can use smart technologies to optimise #energyefficiency, enhance comfort, and improve overall performance—without the high costs and complexity of full-scale renovations. 👉 To help you navigate this game-changing approach, the SRI-ENACT project is hosting a series of 5️⃣ webinars. These sessions will cover everything you need to know about the SRI, from theoretical insights to practical building #assessments. Who should attend? ✔️ Anyone passionate about driving #sustainability and #innovation in the #building sector ✔️ Professionals looking to understand this soon-to-be mandatory framework ✔️ Individuals considering becoming future SRI auditors ℹ Register now: https://bit.ly/3MTHhnP #SRIENACT #SRI #EnergyEfficiency #SmartBuildings #Sustainability #SmartReadiness #SRIauditor #GreenBuilding

🗨 "The LIFE Programme Clean Energy Transition programme features many synergies with other EU programmes and EU-funded actions, such as #HorizonEurope. The CINEA - European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency aims to build on those synergies to deliver on the EU clean energy transition – as illustrated, for instance, by the recent cross-programme buildings clustering meeting, which involved a mix of projects from H2020, LIFE and Horizon Europe, or by the establishment of a project community for the implementation of the Smart Readiness Indicator under the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive. In this scope, the participation of CINEA in the 12th annual edition of the Sustainable Places conference (SP2024) is a great opportunity to highlight the opportunities from, and the achievements of, the LIFE CET programme, and to strengthen cross-programme synergies." - Sylvain Robert, CINEA LIFE Programme as #SustainablePlaces2024 EXHIBITOR!
