The CA EPBD (2007 – 2010) is organized around 5 Core Themes (CTs): Certification of Buildings, Inspections of Boilers and AC systems, Training of Experts, Procedures for Characterization of Energy Performance, and Information Campaigns. Since its launch in December 2007, it has organized four major meetings between Member States (MS) representatives, with intensive preparatory work in between. In addition to plenary sessions devoted to issues of general interest, it organised a total of 63 detailed technical sessions for discussing specific issues relating to one or more of the 5 CTs. The initial plan for CA2 included a long list of topics related to the various themes and additional topics have been identified since then by CA2 participants. This report summarises the main outcomes of these sessions, including conclusions and recommendations, for each of the five main topics. Some topics have been dealt with by more than one CT and therefore reported in more than one section, but described in different perspectives.
The CA is funded under Intelligent Energy–Europe under the European Union's Competitiveness and Innovation Programme.
