1 European Directive on the Energy Performance of Buildings (EDPB)
2 Problem Domain/ Reporting Burden
3 Reducing Reporting Burden with XBRL
4 Research Approach/ Software Application
5 Implications/Future Aspects
Scarce of energy resources
Growing awareness of energy consumption
Buildings with low energy efficiency High energy consumption of heating and air
conditioning devices
Directive 2002/91/EU on the Energy Performance of Buildings (EDPB)

Energy consumption has to be reduced in order to save scarce resources.
◦ based on article 6 of the EWG treaty [91EG02]
General Framework◦ calculation of the energy performance of existing
buildings◦ minimum requirements◦ “energy passes” for real estate◦ Member states should implement the guideline

Harmonisation and standardisation problems between European and national level
Proprietary software solutions evoke dependencies between national level and technical areas
EU-wide transparency problem, which complicates the comparison building
Difficulties concerning the automatic reporting and processing

Seamless Reporting of the EDPB is possible we provide EU-wide transparency and technical
harmonization better changeability, compared to existing
proprietary solutions
with XBRL:◦ international comparability is supported◦ electronic procession and further use of the same data is
promoted
