Smart Readiness Indicator for buildings – Status and next steps

In the framework of the EPBD revision, in March 2021, the European Commission’s Directorate-General for Energy (DG ENER) organised a series of workshops as part of the public consultation which is open until 22 June, aiming to collect views from different stakeholders. The Smart Readiness indicator (SRI) was discussed in the fourth workshop (19 May) and received many interesting comments from stakeholders. In the polls that were distributed during the workshop, participants identified “improved IAQ” as the most important indicator amongst seven, and after “thermal comfort” and “energy efficiency”.
