The set of CEN standards developed to support the implementation of the EPBD in the EU Member States
This report gives an overview of the standards as they are being developed under the EU Mandate to CEN. It also gives some information on the CEN standardisation work, how to participate and where to retrieve the information.

1 > How is the CEN work organised?

The EPBD requires that the EU Member States regulate

minimum energy performance requirements for new buildings; energy performance certificates for buildings; economically feasible energy saving measures to be considered economically feasible sustainable energy applications to be considered; and regular inspection and advice for improvement for boilers / heat generators and heating systems and cooling and AC systems. This shall be performed in a technically solid and transparent manner and be monitored by the MSs. The used methods shall be reliable to guarantee that the calculated and reported values and advices will lead to the expected energy savings within the expected feasibility.

CEN is the European Association of national standardisation institutes, the so called National Standards Bodies (NSBs). These NSBs are responsible for the contact with the interested market parties and experts preparing the CEN standards in the same way they do when preparing national standards. Members of CEN-Technical Committees (CEN-TCs) are nominated by the NSBs. The TCs decide on the scope and content of a standard. The actual work is done in smaller CEN-TC-Working Groups whose expert members are nominated by NSBs. In most countries the NSB organises a national mirror group to monitor and support the work of a CEN-TC. This was also done in the EPBD program of CEN. Because in this case the work covers 5 CEN-TCs, some NSBs organised a special mirror group to follow the work on the total EPBD CEN program. Members who participate to CEN-TC-WGs are involved in the details of the standard development. They should contribute themselves, as expert, and be motivated to find the right expertise in their own network. Once a draft standard is approved by the responsible CEN-TC, it goes out as draft standard (prEN) for Public Enquiry. The comments are prepared via the NSBs. The working group prepares the replies to the comments and prepares a new draft standard which, once approved again by the CEN-TC goes out as final draft for Final Vote. The time between publishing the prEN and publishing the final standard is usually between 21 and 30 months.

2 > How and where do I obtain EN standards?

ENs or prENs (draft ENs) or EN-ISO standards are officially published by CEN in Brussels but can only be obtained from the NSBs. The CEN website provides the contacts and has also a search engine to see which standard activities are in progress and the existing and draft standards available. Are they only available in English? It is a fact that in general most of the preparatory work in the TCs and WGs is in English. The underlying documentation, the preliminary drafts, are in English. When publishing a draft standard (prEN) it is up to DIN and AFNOR to decide if they want to translate and provide CEN with a German or French version. The time schedules allow for 2 months making this translation available. It is up to the NSBs to decide if other national language versions will be produced. This decision will only be taken if this is required by the users. If this group is a small expert group of, for example, software developers this seems not likely. But when the standard is referred in a more general way for a bigger target group, translation should be considered by the NSB.

3 > What is the relation with the national and international (ISO) standards?
National standards There is an agreement between CEN and the national standards bodies that before starting national standardisation work CEN standardisation work shall be considered. If there is already CEN work started, this line shall be followed and national work should not be done. It is called a Stand still. After the ENs are published, existing and possibly conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn within a certain time frame. If national legislation is referring to these national standards, the NSB can get some years to repair this. A three to five years period is considered as the maximum deviation period in which national standards shall be withdrawn. ISO standards There is an agreement between CEN and ISO saying that they shall not work on the same Work Items. New work can only be started in CEN if it is not already on the ISO program and reverse. CEN-TCs are encouraged to seek contact with related ISO-TCs , e.g. CEN-TC89 and ISO-TC163, to agree on possible parallel voting. This means that the EN may become an ISO-EN if accepted by ISO. Existing ENs will by preference be maintained by related ISO-TCs. Only when related ISO-TCs are not interested or not giving it enough priority, the CEN-TC will continue the normal 5 years maintenance schedule or faster if needed.

4 > Harmonisation
To support the open EU market, more and more standards have been prepared as ENs. For building products this is even a requirement based on EU mandates to CEN according to the EU-CPD (Construction Product Directive). To stimulate an open EU market, construction products shall only be specified according to mandatory, socalled harmonised EN (or EN-ISO) standards. The EPBD stimulates EN standards for the energy calculation procedures for buildings and their systems, and all related performance prescriptive standards needed to specify buildings and systems in relation to the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive. The European Commission gave a mandate to CEN in order to speed up the development of standards needed EPBD Buildings Platform > P02 EPBD CEN Standards

The Technical Committees of CEN that are involved in the preparation of the EPBD related standards

for the EPBD implementation. CEN didnt start this work from scratch. Already existing CEN Technical Committees have been quite active during the last 15 years preparing international standards in this field. These TCs have been involved in developing the CEN program to support the implementation of the EPBD. The process is being overseen by CEN/BT WG 173, Energy performance of buildings project group. Its task is to coordinate the work and to ensure that standards prepared in different committees interface with each other in a suitable way.

CEN/TC 89 Thermal performance of buildings and building components CEN/TC 156 Ventilation for buildings CEN/TC 169 Light and lighting CEN/TC 228 Heating systems in buildings CEN/TC 247 Building automation, controls and building management

5 > The EU Mandate to CEN

The European Commission decided after consultation of the Member States experts, interest groups and CEN, that there was an urgent need for standards to support the EPBD. The aim is to offer within a short period (2004-2006) a clear and consistent set of standards as basis for the national procedures in the Member States. In particular the Member States with a very limited experience in the field of the EPBD could benefit from this. On the long term, harmonisation of the standards will also be attractive for all Member States. The maintenance and further development costs will be lower compared with the situation where all NSBs have to do this on their own. In addition, there is great advantage in having harmonised standards throughout Europe. The widescale implementation of new technical solutions, equipment and systems will become easier if the performance is calculated in a similar way. This means that the industry may have a bigger market throughout Europe which may also benefit their opportunities on the world market. The development of CEN standards may lead to CEN-ISO standards. The ISO standards are widely accepted and may even increase the market opportunities of the European industry. Regional differences in climate, building tradition and user behaviour in Europe will have impact on the input data and consequently on the energy performance. These differences will also lead to different choices when it comes to finding the optimum balance between accuracy and simplicity. The standards developed under the EPBD have to be flexible enough to accommodate these differences.

6 > The set of EPBD CEN Standards

The set of CEN-EPBD standards consists of 43 titles or parts and can be grouped as follows:

1. The building physics standards, e.g. describing the calculation of heat

transfer by transmission and ventilation, load and summer temperature, solar transmittance and the calculation of the energy need for heating and cooling of the building.

2. In the second group there are standards on the description and

properties (classification) of ventilation systems plus cooling and air conditioning systems. domestic hot water systems: The generation efficiency. The emission efficiency. Domestic hot water systems.

3. The third group is focussing on the description of space heating and

EPBD Buildings Platform > P02 EPBD CEN Standards

Low temperature heating and cooling systems integrated in building elements (embedded systems). Lighting systems for buildings (including the effect of daylight) Controls and automation for building services Classification of the indoor environment Financial economic evaluation of sustainable energy applications. Boilers and heating systems Cooling- and AC systems Ventilation systems.

4. A series of supporting standards on:

5. A set of standards on inspection:

6. And, last but not least, the two key standards on expressing energy

performance and for energy certification of buildings, the overall energy use, primary energy and CO2 emissions, the assessment of energy use and definition of energy performance ratings.

7 > Current status of the EPBD CEN standards and where to obtain?
Most of the EPBD CEN standards are currently available as drafts (prEN). Some are already finalised as EN or EN-ISO standards. The standards and draft standards can be ordered from the National Standards Body (see http://www.cenorm.be/). The in total 43 standards or parts are available and listed in the appendix. The total set contains 2000 pages. It is expected that on the basis of the results of the public enquiry major changes will be made. Thus the standards, to be published for formal Vote by the beginning of 2007, may be different from the current prENs. Some standards will be merged, definitions and expressions will become better harmonised in the coming months. Some of the informative parts will be deleted. But the core content will not change, so it is of interest to use the current set of prENs to get a good idea of the final set to be published in 2007. As usual, prENs are published in English and, by choice of DIN and AFNOR, also published in a German or French. It is up to the other NSBs to decide if national language versions will be produced, depending on the target group as explained above.

The EPBD Buildings Platform has been launched by the European Commission in the frame of the Intelligent Energy Europe, 2003-2006 programme.It is managed by INIVE EEIG (www.inive.org), on behalf of Transport and Energy DG.

APPENDIX List of EPBD STANDARDS

List of Mandated Work Items and standards related to the EPBD, the list of the prENs under the EPBD Mandate as they have been published for public enquiry. Official reactions on the prEN should be sent to the National Standard Body (Member Body; MB) in the CEN member states. All the official comments will be processed by the MBs and sent to CEN in Brussels. CEN will analyse the voting results and send it to the responsible CEN/TC secretariat. After this the CEN Working Group responsible for that prEN will start the analysis and the preparation of the final version of the standard to be voted for Formal Vote within one year. During this revision process comments given to related standards have to be taken in account as well. WI -nr 32 1.
