Energy Efficiency Directive: Information and Training (as it relates to Article 17)
Aislamiento en edificación 1: Guía práctica de la energía para la rehabilitación de edificios. El aislamiento, la mejor solución, Spain
A divulgative guide directed to communities of neighbors and house owners on thermal refurbishment of buildings. The guide explains what is a thermal refurbishment with isolation, when it can and should be done, what buildings are susceptible to a refurbishment, practical advice and how to apply for the available aids. The last chapter contains a case study of a real example.
Guías Técnicas de Ahorro y Eficiencia Energética en Climatización, Spain
Series of Technical Guidelines developed by IDAE, the Spanish Institute for Energy Diversification and Saving, with the objective of increasing energy efficiency of the thermal installations in buildings. These documents are addressed to designers, installers, maintainers, inspectors and users of thermal installations of buildings, and have been recognized as official documents of the Regulation of Thermal Installations in Buildings (RITE).
La Comunidad Eficiente 2.0, Spain
This is a tool developed by WWF with the collaboration of the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Environment and the Fundación Biodiversidad. It is aimed at estimating in a simplified way the energy consumption in the household. The objective is to contribute to boost the market for energy rehabilitation of buildings and the promotion of renewable energies through distributed generation and self-consumption.
Display, France
Display is a communication tool complementary to the national certificate for public buildings that today has most of the Member States. With emphasis on local communication campaigns and providing a variety of communication tools, Display exceeds the requirements of the Directive on the energy of buildings (EPBD) Performance. In particular, post 'evolution' to show efforts and improving the energy efficiency of a building, by including on the same post the energy performance of the building on two years.
Energy calculator, Hungary
On- line calculator - Tool for energy audit with possibility to calculate payback period. The calculator is on Hungarian language, according to the Hungarian energy efficiency targets. You can input the type, size and material of the building, heating system, lighting, heating system, annual energy and water consumption and other parameters to calculate the payback period for investment in new equipment.
