Multi-dwelling energy efficiency and housing investment aid
The Government of Sweden aims to improve energy efficiency in multi-dwelling buildings through investment on promoting energy efficiency through increased energy performance and reduced energy demand and greenhouse gas emissions. The investment aid scheme aims to promote more energy efficient new rental housing and housing for students by requiring that such new projects are more energy efficient than new construction in general.

National System for Energy and Indoor Air Quality Certification of Buildings (SCE)
The buildings certification system in Portugal operates in conjunction with two sets of building regulations applied to construction, the Regulations on Thermal Behaviour of Buildings (RCCTE) and the Regulations on HVAC Systems in Buildings (RSECE), fully transposing the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD). The SCE, which entered into force on 1 July 2007, aims to save energy and protect the environment. The timetable for implementation of the SCE is divided into three phases with full implementation in January 2009 at which time all contracted buildings will be included: new houses, sales and leases. In the first phase, the legislation…
