REGULATORY ASSISTANCE PROJECT THE PERFECT FIT | 39 • Changes to assessment and information tools: – Introduction of Building Renovation Passports that set out an individual renovation pathway for the building. – Recommendations for building improvements contained in the Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) to include measures to reduce GHG emissions as well as improve energy performance. – Assessment of whether heating or air conditioning can be operated at a low temperature to be included both in EPC recommendations and in building system inspections required by the Directive. • A new definition of deep renovation: before 2030 a renovation which transforms a building or unit to a nearly-zero energy building, and after 2030 a renovation which transforms a building or unit to a zero-emissions building.49 How would these proposals affect heat pumps? The requirement for Member States to set out policies and measures to phase out fossil fuels in heating and cooling by 2040 is the most important of the new proposals, as it significantly strengthens the heat planning provisions in the rest of the European policy framework. These policies and measures would be a significant driver for heat pump deployment. The minimum energy performance standards proposed require very poorly performing buildings to be renovated, but the proposal requires them to be brought up to only a relatively low level of performance. These standards alone, therefore, will not be likely to drive significant heat pump adoption. They will however drive improvement in efficiency and insulation levels of the worst-performing buildings. This is essential to put these buildings onto a pathway to efficient, full decarbonisation. Together with the requirement for Member States to draw up a further trajectory of performance improvements and improved National Building Renovation Plan policies, measures and performance indicators for fully decarbonising the stock, these measures should contribute to driving demand reduction and therefore efficient decarbonisation. The changes to the information elements to require assessment of the readiness of heat emitters to run at lower temperatures are a useful precursor to heat pump installation. 49 As proposed in the EPBD a ‘zero-emission building’ means a building with a very high energy performance, as determined in accordance with Annex I, where the very low amount of energy still required is fully covered by energy from renewable sources generated on-site, from a renewable energy community within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2018/2001 [amended RED] or from a district heating and cooling system, in accordance with the requirements set out in Annex III.PDF Image | RAP Perfect Fit Heat Pump
