ANNEX V

Template for energy performance certificates

(referred to in Article 19)

1. On its front page, the energy performance certificate shall display at least the following elements:

(a) 

the energy performance class;

(b) 

the calculated annual primary energy use in kWh/(m2.y);

(c) 

the calculated annual final energy use in kWh/(m2.y);

(d) 

renewable energy produced on-site in % of energy use;

(e) 

operational greenhouse gas emissions (kgCO2/(m2.y)), and the value of the life-cycle GWP, if available.

The energy performance certificate shall also display the following elements:

(a) 

the calculated annual primary and final energy consumption in kWh or MWh;

(b) 

renewable energy production in kWh or MWh; main energy carrier and type of renewable energy source;

(c) 

the calculated energy needs in kWh/(m2.y);

(d) 

a yes/no indication whether the building has a capacity to react to external signals and adjust the energy consumption;

(e) 

a yes/no indication whether the heat distribution system inside the building is capable to work at low or more efficient temperature levels, where applicable;

(f) 

the contact information of the relevant one-stop shop for renovation advice.

2. In addition, the energy performance certificate may include the following indicators:

(a) 

energy use, peak load, size of generator or system, main energy carrier and main type of element for each of the uses: heating, cooling, domestic hot water, ventilation and in-built lighting;

(b) 

the greenhouse gas emission class (if applicable);

(c) 

information on carbon removals associated to the temporary storage of carbon in or on buildings;

(d) 

a yes/no indication whether a renovation passport is available for the building;

(e) 

the average U-value for the opaque elements of the building envelope;

(f) 

the average U-value for the transparent elements of the building envelope;

(g) 

type of most common transparent element (e.g. double-glazed window);

(h) 

results of the analysis on overheating risk (if available);

(i) 

the presence of fixed sensors that monitor the indoor environmental quality;

(j) 

the presence of fixed controls that respond to the levels of indoor environmental quality;

(k) 

number and type of recharging points for electric vehicles;

(l) 

presence, type and size of energy storage systems;

(m) 

expected remaining lifespan of the heating or air-conditioning systems and appliances, where applicable;

(n) 

feasibility of adapting the heating system to operate at more efficient temperature settings;

(o) 

feasibility of adapting the domestic hot-water system to operate at more efficient temperature settings;

(p) 

feasibility of adapting the air-conditioning system to operate at more efficient temperature settings;

(q) 

metered energy consumption;

(r) 

whether there is a connection to a district heating and cooling network, and, if available, information about a potential connection to an efficient district heating and cooling system;

(s) 

local primary energy factors and related carbon emission factors of the connected local district heating and cooling network;

(t) 

operational fine particulate matter (PM 2,5 ) emissions.

The energy performance certificate may include the following links with other initiatives if these apply in the relevant Member State:

(a) 

a yes/no indication whether a smart readiness assessment has been carried out for the building;

(b) 

where available, the value of the smart readiness assessment;

(c) 

a yes/no indication whether a Digital Building Logbook is available for the building.

Persons with disabilities shall have equal access to the information in energy performance certificates.
