What is the EPBD Directive?

Origin and objectives

The EPBD (Energy Performance of Buildings Directive) was adopted by the European Union to:

  • Reduce the energy consumption of buildings.

  • Achieve carbon neutrality targets by 2050.

  • Encourage the use of renewable energy and improve occupant comfort.

Main obligations

  • Minimum energy performance standards for all new and renovated buildings.

  • Renovation requirements for existing buildings to reduce their energy consumption.

  • Energy certification mandatory for property transactions.

  • Deployment of control and automation systems (in accordance with the BACS Decree in France).

Who is affected?

  • Residential and commercial buildings.

  • Renovation and construction projects in all European Union member states.

The impact of the EPBD Directive on businesses

Opportunities

  • Long-term energy cost reduction with efficiency.

  • Better return on real estate assets thanks to improved energy performance.

  • Direct contribution to the fight against climate change.

Challenges

  • Initial investment required to modernise buildings.

  • Regulatory complexity to be integrated into real estate and energy strategies.

Link with French regulations

In France, the EPBD is implemented through:

  • The Tertiary Decree, which sets energy consumption reduction targets.

  • The BACS Decree, which sets requirements for building automation.
