IsZEB Certify
A holistic evaluation of Nearly Zero Energy Buildings
IsZEB Certify is a complete software package solution, composed of 3 software for:
- Buildings’ Energy Performance assessments and Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) issuance
- Buildings’ Smart Readiness assessments and Smartness Readiness Indicator (SRI) Certificates issuance
- Buildings’ holistic evaluation and certification based on the IsZEB Standard within the following technical levels:
- Energy Efficiency
- Smartness
- Thermal Comfort
- Indoor Air Quality
- Building Shell Properties
- Sound Insulation
- Structural Fire Protection
- Anti-seismic Protection
- Waste Management
An Innovative Software Package Issuing Certificates, Based on European & Greek Standards and Methodologies
The IsZEB Certify offers:
- An easy to use and friendly environment
- Integration with BIM
- Building shell & MEP systems description extensive databases and libraries
- Special forms, calculating technical characteristics of MEP systems
- Complete technical report, including calculations, drawings, diagrammatic illustrations & improvement scenarios
Software for calculating the energy classification of a building for the subsequent issuance of an EPC, based on the Greek Regulation for the Energy Performance of Buildings (KENAK) and connected to the official EPC software of the Technical Chamber of Greece (TEE-KENAK) core engine. The EPC issuance process takes place at the following steps:
- Building profile: General building information import, Fields autofill from XML files. Use of BIM files
- Building shell: Introduction of buildings’ geometrical characteristics & thermophysical properties. Use of materials’ libraries and fields autofill from the design environment
- Building systems: Import of MEP systems technical characteristics. Use of MEP libraries
- Summary: Macroscopic control of results (energy requirements-consumption)
- Improvement scenarios: Buildings’ energy efficiency proposed upgrading interventions
- Results: Technical report, including calculations, plans, results’ diagrammatic presentation and benchmarking analysis of buildings’ energy performance between the current situation and the proposed improvement scenarios.
SRI Calculator: Software for calculating the Smart Readiness Index of buildings, based on the European SRI methodology (Smart Readiness Indicator). The issuance of SRI reports is carried out at distinct levels:
- Building profile: General building information import
- Technical Domains: Selection of existing technical sectors in the considered building
- Calculation Method: Selection of SRI calculation method (simplified or detailed)
- MEP Building systems:MEP systems identification & smart readiness evaluation
- Improvement scenarios:: Buildings’ Smart Readiness proposed upgrading interventions
- Results: Issuance of SRI reports accompanied with a complete technical report, including thorough description and diagrammatic representation of the results, as well as benchmarking analysis of buildings smart readiness between the current situation and the proposed improvement scenarios
A holistic approach of energy efficient and smart buildings. The IsZEB Standard enables a complete evaluation and certification of buildings, granting the respective IsZEB Certification badge.
The IsZEB certificates issuance process takes place at the following distinct steps :
- Building profile: General information import, fields autofill from XML files
- Complete evaluation of buildings according to IsZEB: A holistic evaluation of buildings according to the IsZEB Methodology
- Smart interaction: Automated field completion from the energy efficiency calculation software and the ‘SRI Calculator’
- Summary: Extended review of the results
- Improvement scenarios: Proposed upgrading interventions within all the technical levels
- Results: Issuance of IsZEB certificate accompanied with a complete technical report, including a thorough description and diagrammatic representation of the results as well as a benchmarking analysis between the current situation and the proposed improvement scenarios
The research projects IsZEB Certify, IsZEB Charge and IsZEB Assist AR were created in the framework of the Program "Collaborative Formations for the promotion of innovation in local entrepreneurship" of the OP. Of the Region of Central Macedonia, NSRF 2014-2020 with the co-financing of Greece and the European Union.
