Some news from Euphyia Tech LTD

“Over the last months we had contacted Ministry of Energy Commerce and Industry of Cyprus to introduce our project and the roadmap, provide them the WP2 and WP4 questionnaires and cooperate to receive help from the lead public authority regarding our project. We had a meeting and after the meeting we received feedback from our official authority. 

We received feedback with completed questionnaires and comments for projects roadmap for Cyprus and updated the partners accordingly. The comments were;

Key remarks on the roadmap:

  • Timeline: Ensure system readiness before Q1 2027 to meet the Regulation deadline of 15 March 2027.
  • Indicators: Align with the Regulation’s mandatory categories and map each to national datasets.
  • Data gaps: Address missing non-residential building indicators (e.g. hospitals, education).
  • Compliance: Add a dedicated activity for legal and technical conformity (GDPR, standard templates, data anonymisation, and EU transfer procedures).

Regarding contacting and engaging interviews with public authorities and stakeholders we are on the verge of reaching to Town Planning Department and Statistical Services of Cyprus to gain a better insight for the numbers and structure of National BSOs and receive feedback for the questionnaires.

Secondly we have also finished reviewing our national policies & legislations regarding National BSOs and EPCs and updated our partners. Cyprus has established a strong foundation for advancing the energy performance and sustainability of its building stock.”

The state of the EPCs in Italy: progress and challenges

The Energy Performance Certificate (EPC), introduced in Italy in 2005 with the 2002 EPBD Directive, is a fundamental tool for building management for owners, operators, and institutions alike. Aside from the benefits, what is the current state of EPCs in Italy? Every year, ENEA publishes a report on EPCs to analyze the state of the art of this certification, which is still not fully exploited in all its potential.
