  • ISOVER Energy Efficiency Awards 2011

    ISOVER is launching the 2011 ISOVER ENERGY EFFICIENCY AWARDS aiming to confer Europe’s most innovative energy efficient construction and renovation projects.

    This competition is a natural outgrowth of two environmental issues that are at the very heart of ISOVER’s preoccupations—protection of the external environment in the face of climate change and enhancing the quality of the interior environment, that is, increasing the physical comfort in the places where we work and live.

Member States will have to alter their building codes so that all new buildings constructed from the end of 2020 meet high energy-saving standards. Existing buildings will have to be upgraded where possible.
