Reference: LIFE23-CET-openBEP4EU/101167613 | Acronym: LIFE23-CET-openBEP4EU

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

BACKGROUND

OpenBEP4EU aims to deliver an open-source, universal software implementation of the ISO 52000 standards family, namely the EU Kernel EPC Engine, to facilitate simultaneous and coordinated adoption of an innovative EPC calculation approach among all the Member States. This initiative aims to make building performance data easily accessible to various stakeholders like financial institutions, energy service providers, and building owners, fostering the development of financial products supporting sustainable renovation projects. Core elements of openBEP4EU’s activities are the creation of an EPC Support Team to drive market adoption as well as a Sustainable Design Data Hub, aligned with the overarching goals of the European Bauhaus initiative, that not only serves as a data repository but also promotes collaboration and research for sustainable architecture and design. These activities will facilitate stakeholder engagement, contribute to improved EPC reliability, accuracy, accessibility, while paving the way for EPC market uptake across the EU Member States though well promotion strategies. All data sharing within this framework adheres to the principles of the Common European Energy Data Space, prioritizing sovereign data sharing and respecting data ownership among the involved stakeholders. openBEP4EU’s framework will be extensively tested and then validated in five (5) different areas in Greece, Denmark, Spain, Cyprus and Switzerland, covering different climatic zones, building typologies, and EPC schemes.
