Structural Issue Identified
The implementation of the EU Energy Performance of Buildings Directive requires adjustments to national regulatory frameworks governing building energy performance, certification systems and building installations.
These regulatory changes affect how energy use in buildings is monitored, assessed and improved as part of broader climate transition objectives.
What problem this work relates to
Buildings account for a significant share of energy consumption and emissions in Europe. Implementing EU directives at national level requires translating legislative requirements into technical regulations, certification frameworks and supervisory systems.
Understanding how national authorities interpret and operationalise these directives provides insight into practical regulatory implementation.
Structural Adjustment & Implementation
Observation of a digital **remisseminarium organised by Boverket within the framework of the ongoing remissförfarande concerning proposals for implementing the EU Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) in Swedish legislation.
The seminar presented draft regulatory proposals related to building energy performance requirements, energy declaration systems and certification frameworks for energy experts.
Observable Effect
The seminar provided insight into how Boverket is preparing regulatory adjustments connected to the implementation of the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive within the Swedish regulatory framework.
