Energy identity building

The Greek buildings appears to be extremely wasteful in their majority. According to surveys absorb one third of the energy consumed annually in our country and emit into the atmosphere 45% of total carbon dioxide. So the potential for saving energy by all our country's buildings are great.

 

 

The Greek buildings appears to be extremely wasteful in their majority. According to surveys absorb one third of the energy consumed annually in our country and emit into the atmosphere 45% of total carbon dioxide. So the potential for saving energy by all our country's buildings are great.

 

Based on this logic then, and after a new EU directive of the European Union, the energy identity of buildings is now mandatory.

 

 

 

From now on any building you will not get permission from the Town Planning if it has no energy identification. The same applies to buildings already constructed and operated with area over 1000 square meters.

 

This certificate is called Building Energy Identity Card (laces) and describes all the energy characteristics of each building. It is essential and integral part of the building permit and without it would be impossible to complete any transaction (sale, rent, transfer, etc.) On the building. The mandatory publication of laces expected to influence prices on the real estate market and contribute to energy consciousness.

 

The laces on:

  • All real estate transactions
  • All property leases over 50sqm
  • All funds energy upgrades buildings interventions (national or Community)

The Bull Energy Identity Building (laces) valid for ten (10) years and relates to all new buildings, total area of ​​more than fifty (50) square meters, existing buildings subject to major renovation, the existing floor area over 50 sq.m. or portions thereof when sold or rented out, and all the buildings in the public and broader public sector. The Energy Performance Certificate a requirement in the case of buying and selling is implemented six (6) months from the entry into force of KENAK if renting nine (9) months.

 

Energy certification be made by the energy inspectors. This certified specialist scientists who will conduct energy audits for certification of building energy efficiency. The energy audit is the control and diagnostic process of the energy performance of each building and the ongoing energy consumption to cover all the building needs.

 

 

Finally, it is worth noting that the energy consumption of buildings in our country is 20% to 25% above the average for the European Union. So it is easy to see that the implementation of this new directive will contribute significantly to the improvement of life in buildings and cities, improving the daily life of citizens and will greatly benefit the environment.
