This session will look at potential routes towards the delivery of the EU Energy Performance of Buildings Directive ‘Nearly Zero Energy’ aspirations, which are to become mandatory across member states by 2020.

The EU funded PassReg (Passive Regions) project supports the strong ‘fabric first’ approach, particularly using experiences from the successful implementation of the Passivhaus Standard in several EU countries. This will be compared and set in context with the on site compliance and allowable solutions routes proposed for the UK by the Zero Carbon Hub.

Whichever the chosen route, this session will emphasise the inevitable importance of good detailing and construction practices in the delivery of airtightness and thermal bridging as key contributors to future targets.

How to Book: To reserve your place please email cewalesevents@cewales.org.uk stating your full contact details and the names of all delegates wishing to attend. Substitution of delegates can be made at any time.

Non-attendance by any registered delegate will be charged £30 plus VAT unless you have informed us prior to the event.

We confirm numbers to the venue the day before the event and as numbers cannot be amended after that date we are charged in full for that amount. In order to reduce wastage at our events CEW operates a policy of only notifying venue details when issuing registration confirmation. This ensures we only cater for delegates who have registered and don’t over order for individuals who may or may not turn up on the day.
