2 - Impact, Compliance and control

Impact, compliance and control of legislation

The EPBD only requires from MS to set requirement levels, without specifying the minimum requirement level. In practice, it means that EPBD can be implemented without resulting in more severe requirements.  Another issue of concern is compliance and control, which can range from a very strict control to no control at all. ASIEPI will give a good view about the impact of the present EPBD on the requirements and how MS handle the respect of requirements.

The main objectives of ASIEPI regarding this issue are:

  • To obtain a good view how EPBD implementation has changed (or is changing) the national requirements (e.g. more severe requirements, widening of the range of buildings covered by the regulations, more requirements, requirements for renovations…),
  • To obtain a good overview of the way Member States deal with compliance handling and control measures. Not only actions by governments but also non-governmental actions, e.g. market control by the stakeholders, role of insurance companies, … will be included in the analysis,
  • Identification of interesting approaches and possible bottlenecks for improved compliance and control.
