This Central Team is mainly linked to decarbonisation, calculations and standards. This includes life cycle calculations, for carbon and energy, general calculation procedures and standards. This team will support the development of frameworks and definitions of for instance primary energy factors. The team will further work with cost efficiency, cost optimality and their implication on zero carbon buildings. The work on these rules is expected to cover definitions and methods for new buildings as well as their application on existing buildings or the use in for instance EPCs. The team will handle some technical elements and also look at cost optimisation and combination with other matrixes for calculation including non-energy related matters. CEN standards in general will be addressed by this team and in particular when it comes to energy performance standards and life cycle calculations.
