This dissertation was written as a part of the MSc in Energy Building Design at the International Hellenic University. The focus of this thesis was the importance of the EU building stock classification and the help of the private and public sector in order to create moderate energy policies.
A review is presented, regarding various studies for the classification in selected Euro-pean countries collated with each other. Data from major EU studies (BPIE, TABULA project, Think Topic 7) are adopted and examined.
Further, legislative, economic and social aspects for this aspect are studied. Energy Performance Certificates, private investment and companies, financing problems and initiatives as well as ownership status, energy poverty and vulnerable population are critical issues that are examined.
Continuously, best practice examples from particular EU countries are demonstrated and gathered in figures that help for a clear recommendation of energy policies that can be used in order to implement energy efficiency measures and help European Union achieve the energy related targets. The main outcome of the study is how the methodology suggested can be applied in a country like Greece.
