THE PINK ASSOCIATION submitted comments on the draft regulation of the Minister of Development and Technology on the methodology for determining the energy performance of a building or part of a building and energy performance certificates.

• defining the methodology for determining energy performance based on standard use (Annex 1);
• specification of the template for the building's energy performance certificate (Annex No. 2);
• determining the template for the energy performance certificate for a part of a building (Annex No. 3);
• introducing the obligation to use the hourly method to calculate energy demand for all types of buildings, with the exception of the monthly and hourly methods for residential buildings;
• presentation of the building's energy performance in the form of energy performance classes on a scale from A+ to G:
  • the A+ scale characterizes the building or part of the building with the best energy performance properties;
  • The G scale indicates a building or part of a building with the worst energy performance. 
• extension of the energy standard assessment for each energy performance class in relation to two indicators for the demand for non-renewable primary energy EP and the annual demand for net delivered energy ED;
• specifying the rules for calculating additional components of aerothermal, geothermal and hydrothermal final energy and including these components in the RES balance and share;
• a change in the graphic form of energy performance certificates for buildings and parts of buildings, introduction of energy performance classes for buildings – annual demand for non-renewable primary energy EP, annual demand for net delivered energy ED, and a new way of presenting CO2 emissions was also defined.
