  4. The starting point – the Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) A Expert’srecommendationsfocusonthefollowingareas(PT):

  5. A Objective: Implementation of EPC Recommendations From the EPC to the building site How can this be achieved?

  6. A Creating a framework Identify potential tools and techniques to increase the uptake of EPC recommendations (Create the building blocks for a modular schemes) CommonUsefulInformation (For different audiences) Examples of modular schemes (Best practice examples from accross the EU)

  7. CONTENT • Introduction • Modular Schemes • BestPractices • EfficiencyAssistant Whatis a modular scheme?

  8. B Modular SchemesDefinitions Modular Scheme Key Areas Tools Actions Modular Scheme Modular Schemes A strategy for building a major programme that drives the uptake of EPC recommendations Example? The portuguese programme to promote solar thermalcollectors http://www.paineissolares.gov.pt
