GREEN HOUSES DIRECTIVE:
Energy Efficiency by 2030

The European Union's Green Houses Directive is a key step toward a more sustainable future. By adapting to the new standards, it not only contributes to the fight against climate change, but also offers long-term economic benefits through reduced energy consumption. Investing in energy efficiency today means building a greener, more sustainable tomorrow.

By 2030, all residential buildings must reach at least energy class E, and by 2033, class D must be achieved. While starting in 2028, all newly constructed residential buildings must be built with zero emissions.

This means that of the 12.5 million residential buildings in Italy, the least efficient buildings that will have to be upgraded with priority will be about 5 million. The interventions needed are those financed until a few months ago by the Superbonus: thermal insulation, replacement of windows and doors, new boilers and solar panels.

Goal Class D :
Where to start?

To comply with the new Green House Directive and improve the energy efficiency of your home, owners of high-consumption homes can adopt several practical solutions:

• Optimize Thermal Insulation - Applying a new thermal coat to the house envelope can significantly reduce heat dispersion. In addition, new Thermal Break windows and doors that prevent the passage of heat and thus improve the insulation of one's home.
  
• Introduce Intelligent Home Automation Systems - Home automation, through sensors and actuators, can optimize energy use. With Controlled Mechanical Ventilation, you ensure optimal air exchange without heat loss. This system allows for optimal air quality inside the home, contributing to living comfort.
  
• Eliminate the use of fossil fuels - For example, heat pumps, which extract heat from the air, water or ground, are highly efficient and can replace traditional fossil fuel-fired boilers.

Energy Efficiency in Your Home

The “Green Homes” directive makes it imperative to take action on the building envelope, improving its performance and reducing energy demand to near zero.

In addition to implementing effective thermal insulation with High Performance Windows and solving thermal bridges, it is crucial to ensure air tightness. For both new buildings and those to be upgraded, it becomes necessary to install a Controlled Mechanical Ventilation (CMV) system with heat recovery, which is essential for energy efficiency and healthy indoor air.

Only after achieving a highly efficient envelope, with minimal leakage and reduced energy requirements, does it become possible and necessary to focus on technologies for heat or cool generation and renewable energy production, with the goal of achieving passive, zero-emission house levels.

Carrying out these interventions properly requires careful planning and execution of the highest standard. Aluser works with qualified thermo-technicians and companies specializing in each field to intervene and analyze the energy status of your home. With a comprehensive 360-degree project that aims to achieve higher energy classes, Aluser is by your side to meet the ambitious goals of the Green House Directive and contribute to an energy-sustainable future.
