Background information
The energy supply shortage threatens the economic and social development of the EU states. States need to lower the energy consumption and to make energy usage more effective.
Energy Institute Hrvoje Požar (EIHP), partner of the project 'Let's Sunlight and Renew Croatia - Together' deals with these questions. This project is a part of the "European Union's Smart Readiness Indicator Phase 2" (SRI2MARKET) which began in November 2022. It helps states overcome barriers and provides special public financing schemes for smart technologies in buildings. In Croatia, the project is implemented by EIHP as one of the 12 project partners who will work on it for the next three years.
Content of measure
The measure supports EU Member States introduce the Smart Readiness Indicators (SRI) into their national regulation. The measure provides public funding to finance SRI upgrades in buildings, streamline business assessments, and develop tools to guide SRI assessors. The measure also provides training on the SRI and the methodology of its calculation. It establishes pilot projects of SRI assessment at the national level in order to identify examples of good practice and connects users of e-learning services with building owners who require building assessments. The measure also provides recommendations to building owners and facility managers on cost-effective SRI upgrades.
