( 2 ) PEC and FEC according to the Eurostat indicators of the complete energy balances [nrg_bal_c] – Primary and Final energy consumption (Europe 2020-2030). Please see the PEC and FEC definitions (as the monitoring indicators for the Directive on energy efficiency) in the most recent version of the Energy balance guide on the website of Eurostat (see chapter “Complementing indicators”). ( 3 ) Reference year 2015 (at 2015 exchange rates). ( 4 ) X-3 shall not apply for the first progress reports in 2023. ( 5 ) Member States may provide additional explanation on the national contribution and indicative trajectory for primary and final energy consumption, including their underlying methodology. ( 6 ) Building means a roofed construction having walls, for which energy is used to condition the indoor climate (Directive 2010/31/EU, Article 2(1)) whereas Annex I of the same directive defines, for the purpose of the calculation of energy performance of buildings, the following classification of categories: (a) single-family houses of different types; (b) apartment blocks; (c) offices; (d) educational buildings; (e) hospitals; (f) hotels and restaurants; (g) sports facilities; (h) wholesale and retail trade services buildings; (i) other types of energy-consuming buildings (Directive 2010/31/EU, Annex I point 5.). ( 7 ) Floor area used as reference size for the assessment of the energy performance of a building, calculated as the sum of the useful floor areas of the spaces within the building envelope specified for the energy performance assessment. ( 8 ) As considered in the energy performance calculation of buildings defined by Directive 2010/31/EU. ( 9 ) As presented in the national long-term renovation strategy. Other indicators could reflect the number of buildings and/or total floor area (m2) per energy performance class, per construction period, per building size, per climatic zone, the number of Energy Performance Certificates per building type and/or per energy performance class, an overview of the capacities in the construction, the share of heating system in the building sector, heating system type, etc. Other externalities could also be used to provide a better picture of the buildings sector, such as investments for the renovation of the existing stock, construction’s share in GDP, health issues, etc. ( 10 ) As defined in the national long-term renovation strategy. The COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION (EU) 2019/786 on building renovation provides examples to determine the worst-performing segments of the national building stock: (a) setting a specific threshold, such as an energy performance category (e.g. below ‘D’); (b) using a primary energy consumption figure (expressed in kWh/m2 per year); or even (c) targeting buildings built before a specific date (e.g. before 1980). ( 11 ) The COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION (EU) 2019/786 on building renovation, clarifies that Article 2a(1)(e) of Directive 2010/31/EU concerns all public buildings (and not just public bodies buildings’ that are owned and occupied by central government). Policies and actions under Article 2a(1)(e) of Directive 2010/31/EU should include, for example, buildings that are occupied (e.g. leased or rented) by local or regional authorities and buildings that are owned by central government and regional or local authorities, but not necessarily occupied by them. ( 12 ) An energy renovation means the change of one or more building elements (building envelope and technical building systems according to EPBD Art. 2(9)),having the potential to significantly affect the calculated or metered amount of energy needed to meet the energy demand associated with a typical use of the building, which includes, inter alia, energy used for heating, cooling, ventilation, hot water and lighting. ( 13 ) Floor area used as reference size for the assessment of the energy performance of a building, calculated as the sum of the useful floor areas of the spaces within the building envelope specified for the energy performance assessment. ( 14 ) Renovation rate refers to the cumulated affected building floor area [m2] of all buildings that underwent an energy renovation in calendar year X-3 or X-2, for different renovation depths, divided by the total floor area [m2] of the building stock in the same period. Renovation depths can be defined as “light” (3 % ≤ x ≤ 30 % savings), “medium” (30 % < x ≤ 60 % savings) and “deep” (a renovation which transforms a building or building unit (a) before 1 January 2030, into a nearly zero-energy building (b) as of 1 January 2030, into a zero-emission building). The total energy renovation rate is defined as the sum of all renovation rates of the covered depths. The definition of nearly zero-energy buildings (NZEB) is according to official national NZEB definitions transposing Article 9 of Directive 2010/31/EU, following the framework definition in Article 2 of Directive 2010/31/EU: “Nearly zero-energy building means a building that has a very high energy performance, as determined in accordance with Annex I. The nearly zero or very low amount of energy required should be covered to a very significant extent by energy from renewable sources, including energy from renewable sources produced on-site or nearby.” ( 15 ) The COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION (EU) 2019/786 on building renovation, clarifies that Article 2a(1)(e) of Directive 2010/31/EU concerns all public buildings (and not just public bodies buildings’ that are owned and occupied by central government). Policies and actions under Article 2a(1)(e) of Directive 2010/31/EU should include, for example, buildings that are occupied (e.g. leased or rented) by local or regional authorities and buildings that are owned by central government and regional or local authorities, but not necessarily occupied by them. ( 16 ) Deep renovation equivalent rate equalises/weights the renovation rates at deep renovation depth and can be calculated by the following formula: Equivalent deep renovation rate = [(light renovation depth)*(light renovation rate) + (medium renovation depth)*(medium renovation rate) + (deep renovation depth)*(deep renovation rate)]/(deep renovation depth)] – all factors in %. Renovation depths are the ratio between primary energy saved and total primary energy before renovation of the respective part of the stock. ( 17 ) Can be quantitative or qualitative ( 18 ) If the target/objective is quantifiable, Member States to provide an indication of progress, with the latest available information. Indicators for reporting are to be determined on the basis of national objectives or targets ( 19 ) Member States to refer to a base year and value, as appropriate, if this aids in demonstrating progress. ( 20 ) Member States shall provide an update on the progress achieved up to the current situation. If targets were set, an overview of the main actions and achieved milestones should be given. If targets were not set, then an update on whether targets have since been set and a description of the targets should be provided. ( 21 ) Member States shall describe the expected impacts of the set objectives, and their timeframe.
