Sustainable Energy Management Based on the European Energy Performance Building Directive (EPBD)

The EPBD prescribes an energy performance certificate for buildings. According to the nationalimplementations of the EPBD for non-domestic buildings the specific data of the building will begathered during the certification process and combined into a multi zone model describing buildingand building systems from an energetic point of view. Such a model can not only be used forcertification but also contains valuable information for a continuous evaluation of the energyperformance of the building (continuous commissioning).This paper describes the concept developed at ennovatis and gives first results of its application.
