Amendment 300 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 6
(6) Buildings account for 40 % of final energy consumption in the Union and 36% of its energy-related greenhouse gas emissions . Therefore, reduction of energy consumption , in line with the energy efficiency first principle as laid down in Article 3 [revised EED] and defined in Article 2(18) of Regulation (EU) 2018/1999 of the European Parliament and of the Council32 and the use of energy from renewable sources in the buildings sector, the Commission Recommendation and guidelines on Energy Efficiency First (C(2021) 7014 final), and the use of energy from renewable sources in the buildings sector as part of an integrated systems’ approach to energy; stresses that energy efficiency and renewable energy use must be maximised across the entire energy value chain, across electricity, heat and gas, rather than just at individual building level, constitute important measures needed to reduce the Union’s greenhouse gas emissions. Reduced energy consumption and an increased use of energy from renewable sources also have an important part to play in reducing the Union’s energy dependency, promoting security of energy supply and, integrating the energy system, contributing to system efficiency, fostering technological developments and in creating opportunities for employment, job creation and regional development, in particular in islands and rural areas. _________________ 32 Regulation (EU) 2018/1999 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 December 2018 on the Governance of the Energy Union and Climate Action, amending Regulations (EC) No 663/2009 and (EC) No 715/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council, Directives 94/22/EC, 98/70/EC, 2009/31/EC, 2009/73/EC, 2010/31/EU, 2012/27/EU and 2013/30/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council, Council Directives 2009/119/EC and (EU) 2015/652 and repealing Regulation (EU) No 525/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (OJ L 328, 21.12.2018, p. 1), outermost regions and rural areas.

Amendment 320 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 11
(11) Measures to improve further the energy performance of buildings should take into account different climatic conditions, including adaptation to climate change, local conditions as well as indoor climate environment and cost- effectiveness. Those measures should not affect other requirements concerning buildings such as accessibility , fire safety and seismic safety and the intended use of the building.

Committee: ITRE
Amendment 328 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 12
(12) The energy performance of buildings should be calculated on the basis of a methodology, which may be differentiated at national and regional and local level. That includes, in addition to thermal characteristics, other factors that play an increasingly important role such as heating and air-conditioning installations, application of energy from low carbon and renewable sources, building automation and control systems, smart solutions, passive heating and cooling elements, shading, indoor air- quality, adequate natural light and design of the building. The methodology for calculating energy performance should be based not only on the season in which heating or air- conditioning is required, but should cover the annual energy performance of a building. That methodology should take into account existing European standards. The methodology should ensure the representation of actual operating conditions and enable the use of metered energy to verify correctness and for comparability, and the methodology should be based on hourly or sub-hourly time- steps. In order to encourage the use of renewable energy on-site, and in addition to the common general framework, Member States should take the necessary measures so that the benefits of maximising the use of renewable energy on-site, including for other-uses (such as electric vehicle charging points), are recognised and accounted for in the calculation methodology.

Committee: ITRE
Amendment 334 #
(14) Two-thirds of the energy used for heating and cooling of buildings still comes from fossil fuels. In order to decarbonise the building sector, it is of particular importance to phase out fossil fuel in heating and cooling. Therefore, Member States should indicate their national policies and measures to phase out fossil fuels in heating and cooling in their building renovation plans, and no financial incentives should be given for the installation of fossil fuelstand-alone heat-only boilers under the next Multiannual Financial Framework as of 2027, with the exception of those selected for investment, before 2027, under the European Regional Development Fund and on the Cohesion Fund, and of those that are part of hybrid heating solutions (hybrid heat pumps or cogeneration/fuel cells). A clear legal basis for the ban of heatstand-alone heat-only generators based on their greenhouse gas emissions or the type of fuel usedefficiency, and of heating system incompatible with the use of renewable and low-carbon fuels should support national phase-out policies and measures.

Amendment 350 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 19
(19) The enhanced climate and energy ambition of the Union requires a new vision for buildings: the zero-emission building, the very low energy demand of which is fully covered by energy from renewable sources where technically feasible, geographically feasible and taking into consideration the different climate conditions. All new buildings should be zero- emission buildings, and all existing buildings should be transformed into zero- emission buildings by 2050.

Amendment 400 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 33 a (new)
(33 a) The definition should also consider the climate zone factor when establishing minimum thresholds for primary energy use and renewable and low carbon energy sources, along side existing approaches at the national level. In the longer term, CO2 emissions from building materials should also be included.

Committee: ITRE
Amendment 401 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 33 b (new)
(33 b) A deep renovations standard, if accompanied by adequate support and information, including technical assistance and training, can be a way to achieve higher emissions reduction, but it needs to offer flexibility to consider local circumstances. Local policymakers play an enabling role in designing the energy renovation market through local regulations, driving phase-out of inefficient heating and cooling systems, managing public procurement processes, and developing public-private partnerships. Renovations must be done to a high standard to effectively reduce emissions and avoid performance gaps that can make the targets harder to reach in the medium term.

Amendment 412 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 36
(36) Electric vehicles are expected to play a crucial role in the decarbonisation and efficiency of the electricity system, namely through the provision of flexibility, balancing and storage services, especially through aggregation. This potential of electric vehicles to integrate with the electricity system and contribute to system efficiency and further absorption of renewable and low carbon electricity should be fully exploited. Charging in relation to buildings is particularly important, since this is where electric vehicles park regularly and for long periods of time. Slow charging is economical and the installation of recharging points in private spaces can provide energy storage to the related building and integration of smart charging services and system integration services in general.

Committee: ITRE
Amendment 416 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 37
(37) Combined with an increased share of renewable and low carbon electricity production, electric vehicles produce fewer greenhouse gas emissions. Electric vehicles constitute an important component of a clean energy transition based on energy efficiency measures, alternative fuels, renewable energy and innovative solutions for the management of energy flexibility. Building codes can be effectively used to introduce targeted requirements to support the deployment of recharging infrastructure in car parks of residential and non- residential buildings. Member States should remove barriers such as split incentives and administrative complications which individual owners encounter when trying to install a recharging point on their parking space.

Committee: ITRE
Amendment 422 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 40
(40) Promoting green mobility is a key part of the European Green Deal and buildings can play an important role in providing the necessary infrastructure, not only for recharging of electric vehicles but also for bicycles. A shift to soft mobility such as cycling can significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions from transport. As set out in the 2030 Climate Target Plan, increasing the modal shares of clean and efficient private and public transport, such as cycling, will drastically lower pollution from transport and bring major benefits to individual citizens and communities. The lack of bike parking spaces is a majormight be a barrier to the uptake of cycling, both in residential and non-residential buildings. Building codes can effectively support the transition to cleaner mobility by establishing requirements for a minimum number of bicycle parking spaces.

Amendment 425 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 42
(42) In order to facilitate a competitive and innovative market for smart building services that contributes to efficient energy use and integration of low carbon and renewable energy in buildings and support investments in renovation, Member States should ensure direct access to building systems’ data by interested parties. To avoid excessive administrative costs for third parties, Member States shall facilitate the full interoperability of services and of the data exchange within the Union.

Amendment 440 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 47 a (new)
(47 a) Increased technical assistance is necessary to set up and develop one-stop- shops and mobilise the right expertise. Access to trusted advice and information increases confidence and eases the process to improve energy efficiency in existing buildings, especially for private citizens. Locally operated one stop shops play a key role in ensuring coordination of supply and demand. They can help building owners and managers and help integrate individual projects into the broader strategy of the cities. They can also help prioritise worst performance buildings by establishing timelines and providing targeted support to different portions of the building stock based on construction years. One-stop-shops are also important to encourage citizens to start renovation projects through advice, research options, look for contractors, navigate through tenders and quotations, and provide support during the renovations.

Committee: ITRE
Amendment 444 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 49 a (new)
(49 a) When considering support policies for MEPS, special attention should be given to in-need and at-risk households, particularly to those whose security of tenure might be put at risk. The EPBD should already foresee safeguards to be implemented at national level, such as recommendations for member states to set up social support mechanisms.

Committee: ITRE
Amendment 445 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 49 b (new)
(49 b) The energy transition represents an opportunity to improve access to better quality housing, if renovation costs are balanced as much as possible with energy savings and security of tenure is ensured. It can also help lift households out of energy and transport poverty if subsidies and public funding are made available to those with reduced access to market-price loans. Also, for public housing and rented buildings, participative models are essential for tenants to work together with the housing companies, land lords and owners associations on the scope and cost of renovations. It can help balancing costs and reinforce security of tenure. Capacity building opportunities for local housing providers should be created for better uptake of participative models and a more coordinated approach across sectors at national, regional and local level.

Amendment 447 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 51 a (new)
(51 a) Existing exemptions for heritage and temporary buildings must be maintained for harder to renovate public buildings such as conservation and heritage buildings while new innovative solutions are developed and tested. Technical assistance will be essential to boosting the renovation of public buildings, including financial support for replication and upscaling of pilots and demonstration projects, building on experiences developed with Horizon 2020 funding for smart cities.
2022/07/06
Committee: ITRE
Amendment 448 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 51 b (new)
(51 b) An ambitious and realistic timeline for Member States should be developed to phase out fossil fuels from public buildings gradually and to consider projects and investments already made at the local level. This should be seen in conjunction with the overall energy transition and matching the wide variety of building types with the appropriate solutions. This is particularly an issue in dense urban areas with multi-store buildings, where the available space for renewable installations does not meet the energy demand, even with high energy efficiency.

Committee: ITRE
Amendment 455 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 55
(55) Since local and regional authorities are critical for the successful implementation of this Directive, they should be consulted and involved, as and when appropriate in accordance with applicable national legislation, on planning issues, the development of programmes to provide information, training and awareness-raising, and on the implementation of this Directive at national or regional level. Such consultations may also serve to promote the provision of adequate guidance to local planners and building inspectors to carry out the necessary tasks. Furthermore, Member States should enable and encourage architects and planners to properly consider the optimal combination of improvements in energy efficiency, use of energy from low carbon and renewable sources and use of district heating and cooling when planning, designing, building and renovating industrial or residential areas.

Amendment 463 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 58 a (new)
(58 a) It is important, to have flexibility, especially concerning deep energy renovation, to decide the best approach, whether a staged-pathway or a single renovation process, depending on for exemple their local market, information and financial support available. Whole life carbon emissions should be introduced progressively once conditions - support and information, technical assistance and training - are met. Different elements should be part of the standard: a consideration of the different climatic zones and average performance of the building stock; the use of renewable and low carbon energy, and broader aspects that have an impact on the quality of renovations, such as health and environmental standards, climate resilience, air quality and biodiversity.
