BUILDING RENOVATION ROADMAP

Tailored guidance of owners

Renovation RoadmapThe „Sanierungsfahrplan BW“

• A strategy for the building, focused on life-cycle

• Long-term perspective

• Target renovation measures „as ambitious as possible“

• Unpopular measures such as air ventilation or air tightness are explained

• Considers renovation context

• Propose „low-threshold“ measures as well

The Flemish Renovation Pact

Roel VermeirenFlemish Energy Agency

Flemish Energy Agency

(Vlaams Energieagentschap VEA)

• Operates since 2006 as an internal agency within the Flemish Ministry of Environment, Nature and Energy (80 FTE)

• Mission: to implement a sustainable energy policy

o promoting rational use of energy and environmentally friendly energy production

o implementing the regulations related to distribution networks of electricity, gas and heat

o contributing to the implementation of the Flemish climate policy plan

Towards a Renovation Pact: why?

• European directive on Energy-Efficiency

✓ Long term strategy for renovation of residential buildings

✓ 3th Flemish Action Plan April 2014

▪ Based on Energie Renovation Programma 2020 + strategyfor forerunners NZEB

✓ 4th Flemish Action Plan April 2014

• Link with European goals for Climate and Energy

• Translated in the Flemish Government Programm 2014-2019

Towards a Renovation Pact: why?

• Purpose: co-creation of a coherent action plan

✓ Strong growth of renovation rate: 0,7 towards > 2,5%/year✓ Ambitious improvement of energy performance:

▪ 75% reduction of energy performance indicator

✓ Fight against energy poverty

How?Government facilitates and supports this transformation, BUTall the stakeholders need to be engaged• Partnership with shared means, information, activities and

competences• Shared ultimate goal, win-win

Towards a Renovation Pact: why?Building sector (blue line) used tostimulate economicgrowth

Last years: loweractivity leads tolower growth

Study KPMG: almost 34% of total cost of deep renovation (60.000 euro) flows back to the government.On top: more employment and less unemployment benefits

Overview of the Flemish building stock

• In Flanders (13.522 km², population 6,25 million) we have over 3 million buildings, 60% > 45 years old, 70% ownership

• = 13,7% of total energy use

• Poor energetic performance (based on 1 million EPC’s):

Renovation Pact

December 201434 partners sign engagement declaration Renovation Pact: building sector, materials, social midfield, finance, architects, evironmental planners, experts NZEB,…

Validation by the Flemish Government July 2015Minsters of Energy, Environment and Housing are commissioned to work out the crucial components of the long term renovation strategy

June 2016 Recommendations based on consensus of the partnership

Renovation Pact: where are we?

Renovation Pact: long term goal

75% GHG reduction

in 2050

Renovation Pact: long term goal

Renovation Pact: renovation advice

• 2 types under development

Renovation Pact: renovation advice

Renovation Pact: Building passport

• Unique digital file for each dwelling

– Relevant building aspects

• Modular:

– Energy use (actual and desirable)

– Other building aspects

• Available public information

• Accessible for owner + authorized third parties

– Digital safe for building information and works carried out

• Self-service – owner or third parties

• One-pager of attests and certificates

Advisory service or one-stop-

Why we need advisory services

raise awareness of

what is possible

identify measures

appropriate to each case

quantify costs and benefits of

measures

help prioritiseand advise on

timing

assist in sourcing and

accessing finance

find and choose

suppliers and installers

deal with problems and

decisions during works

adjust behaviour to

ensure realisation of

savings

…advice is the invisible glue that holds the rest of the policy measures together…

Key features of support for deep renovation

Two wayTailored,

not generic

• Expert – and well communicated

• Full coverage: technical, financial, behavioural, suppliers and installers

• Commercially impartial – credible and trusted

• Accessible to all: time, place, medium, language, level of detail

• Multi-stage: throughout the journey, accounting for staged deep renovations

• Referral networks and links to trigger points

Advice, not just information

Model for an energy renovation advisory service

A possible model for delivery…….

•Bespoke and personalised

•Local/regional contact hubs

•One-stop-shop

•From awareness through to action

National resources:• Technical support• Training, qualifications and standards• Facilitation of knowledge exchange• Monitoring and evaluation

Outreach and marketing Building energy

Intermediaries & local services

Planning and building control

Database of local examples

Local/regional Contact Hub

Good examples exist

But the policy framework is piecemeal

And not conceived from the consumer perspective.

Information and empowerment (EED 12 and 17, EPBD 20)

Accurate energy use (EED 9 and 10)

System level recommendations (EPBD 14-16 heating and a/c)

Building level recommendations (EPBD 11 and EED 8, EPCs and audits)

Potential to deliver advisory services as Alternative Measure to EEO??? (EED 7)

Request2Action Retrofit Hubs:

Maximising EPC data to drive the

retrofit market

David WeatherallEnergy Saving Trust

52

The ten stages of EPC databases

1. Having a database

2. Opening up the database

3. A single national database, or co-ordination between regional databases

4. Automated upload to the database and effective data-handling capabilities

5. Use of the database for quality control

6. Using the data for policy making

7. Linking the data to other databases

8. Making the data visible and usable by industry and local authorities

9. Enabling home owners to use the data, and manipulate it to understand what’s possible on their home

10. Working towards harmonization and data transferability for EPC systems across Europe and globally

53

Uses of EPC data by different actors to drive the

retrofit market

• Governments and academics to track the progress of policies to promote energy improvements across Europe’s buildings;

• Identification of the buildings that most need energy upgrades – by governments but also by legitimate commercial providers of retrofit services;

• Building owners and occupiers and housing market actors to see the energy performance of individual properties and entire communities.

Services based around EPC data can be integrated alongside other services to drive the retrofit market – eg find an installer “tripadvisor” type services

Several cities and DSO involved

Existing housing stock and energy performance data combined with information from homeowners

Data in a geo-related map at building level and area level

Portugal - Retrofit Hub

Homeowners can report on new retrofit measures and give feedback on quality

Cities’ area to access EPCs

Greece

Retrofit Hub: a market place to connect demand and supply side actors

Increases trust and reputation for the EPC systems: statistics, NZEBs, search tool on energy retrofit action

Number of unique visitors: 7,810(from January 2016)



61

How the different market actors respond?A

• Easy to interpret R2A data-services are attractive for policy makers (different levels)

• Distributors, providers are interested to spot areas for potential deal

• Trades unions and larger trades or corporations would access data to expand and develop their business or targeted services

• Banks and smaller tradespeople are not interested

Request for:

• evidence of data reliability and impartiality of the insight

• appealing ad-hoc graphical interface and targeted information

• clear rules for access and data sharing

• Privacy
