IEA EBC Annex 70: Building Energy Epidemiology: Analysis of Real Building Energy Use at Scale
Within the framework of the IEA-EBC Annex 70, causes of deviations between calculated and actual energy consumption in buildings were empirically investigated and requirements for data quality, characteristics and security were developed. Furthermore, recommendations were developed regarding the use of internationally uniform standards and methods for data collection, processing and evaluation.
IEA EBC Annex 66: Definition and Simulation of Occupant Behavior in Buildings
Given the considerable implications of occupants' presence and behavior for buildings’ performance, IEA EBC Annex 66 aims to set up a standard occupant behavior definition platform, establish a quantitative simulation methodology to model occupant behavior in buildings, and understand the influence of occupant behavior on building energy use and the indoor environment.
IEA EBC Annex 56 – Cost Effective Energy and Carbon Emission Optimization in Building Renovation
The objective of the IEA EBC Annex 56 project was to develop a methodology for cost effective energy and carbon emissions optimization in building renovation. Within the frame of the project this methodology was developed and furthermore also innovative renovation projects were collected and analyzed, which should perform as best practice examples.
IEA EBC Annex 75: Cost-effective Building Renovation at District Level Combining Energy Efficiency & Renewables
For the conversion of existing buildings into low(st) energy buildings with low greenhouse gas emissions, it is important to know which strategies are most cost-effective to reduce emissions and primary energy consumption of the buildings. In particular, it is important to find the right balance between energy efficiency measures and renewable energy measures. This question is addressed in this project.
IEA EBC Annex 72: Assessing life cycle related environmental impacts caused by buildings
The construction sector has great potential to reduce its energy consumption and the associated environmental impacts. The IEA EBC Annex 72 therefore focuses on the harmonization of methods for the assessment of construction-specific and operational environmental impacts (primary energy requirements, greenhouse gas emissions and other indicators) throughout the life cycle of buildings.
IEA EBC Annex 71: Building Energy Performance Assessment Based on In-situ Measurements
The requirements on building envelope and on building technology are steadily increasing. There is a lack of measurement and analysis methods to control the quality of the built implementation and to optimize the building operation. This project developed a methodological basis to enable an in-situ evaluation of the actual energy performance and building operation. For this purpose, it investigated methods to generate data-driven building models favouring the use of already available on-board data.
IEA EBC Annex 73: Towards Net Zero Energy Resilient Public Communities
Public buildings such as hospitals and educational institutions often house critical infrastructure that depends on sufficient energy and resource supply. The aim of the annex was to develop tools for the planning process of resilient, efficient and low-emission energy systems for such building clusters.
IEA EBC Annex 91: Open BIM for Energy Efficient Buildings
Building Information Modeling (BIM) is considered a key technology for optimising the overall energy performance of buildings. The project lays the foundations for OpenBIM tools to include the assessment and optimisation of the energy efficiency of buildings in the future, for Open BIM processes and data models to be increasingly harmonised and standardised, and thus for smaller construction companies to have the opportunity to work on complex BIM projects in the future.
IEA EBC Annex 89: Ways to Implement Net-zero Whole Life Carbon Buildings
IEA EBC Annex 89 focuses on the pathways and actions needed by various stakeholders and decision-makers to implement whole life cycle based net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from buildings in policy and practice. Annex 89 will support key stakeholders and decision-makers in developing and implementing effective Paris-goal compatible schemes and solutions to achieve NetZ-WLC buildings at multiple scales.
IEA EBC Annex 86: Energy Efficient Indoor Air Quality Management in Residential Buildings
Residential buildings should be able to provide good indoor air quality while ensuring high comfort and low energy use at lowest possible cost. This project will develop methods and compile data to evaluate different indoor air quality management strategies. Furthermore, innovative control strategies will be evaluated and tested in order to develop concrete recommendations for possible implementations of innovative ventilation systems for residential buildings.
IEA EBC Annex 84: Demand Management of Buildings in Thermal Networks
The concept of demand-side management (DSM) in buildings to reduce peak loads in the grid is well established in the power sector. The same concept can be applied to shift thermal loads in buildings connected to thermal networks. This project addresses the topic of demand response in buildings, focusing on the collection of case studies, technologies and collaboration models.
IEA EBC Annex 83 - Positive Energy Districts
A positive energy district (PED) is an urban area/neighbourhood that is able to generate more energy than it consumes and is agile/flexible enough to respond to energy market fluctuations. This is where the IEA-Annex 83 and commissioned leading Austrian research institutions come in to collect, systematise, synthesise and process the knowledge and experience of the international scientific community on PEDs in a form that is understandable for practitioners.

Webinar: Indicators to Assess Resilience of Cooling in Buildings
10. May 2022
Online, AT
Well-insulated and air-tight buildings are known to be vulnerable to overheating. An increase in the severity and duration of heatwaves is expected, resulting in more severe overheating risks, affecting on their turn the health and mortality of building users. To achieve more future-proof buildings, it is crucial to design buildings that are "resilient" to overheating in future climate conditions.
Resilient Cooling of Buildings - Case Studies and Policy Recommendation
20. October 2022
Online
In this webinar EBC Annex 80 experts will present the key findings on resilient cooling policy actions, inlcuding examples from international standards and legislative as well as policy opportunities. Further you will receive an overview of the carried out field studies on resilient cooling and learn from two case studies from India and Belgium.
