2. The EPBD and EPBD-RECAST at the European level
3. National legislation concerning EPBD
4. Energy assessment and audits

UNIT 2: BASIC ITEMS
1. Economics of energy savings
2. Retrofiting  in buildings and new constructions problems
3. Climate and Comfort issues
4. Energy conscious behavior of users

UNIT 3: THE BUILDING
1. Heat transfer
2. Building envelope behavior
3. Ventilation and passive systems
4. Materials and sustainability

UNIT 4: INSTALLATIONS IN BUILDINGS
1. HVAC basic power and energy issues
2. Lighting and electrical power issues
3. Energy management, monitoring & control.
4. Innovation and renewables

UNIT 5: ENERGY PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT
1. Conceptual approach and available tools
2. 1st Level audit activities
3. Data acquisition planning
4. 2nd Level audit (technical & economical approach)

UNIT 6: PRACTICE
1. Energy auditing of the selected buildings
2. Documents release & final report
3. Final presentations, selection of participants for the Summer School

The first 5 Units will be covered in 50 h in the period from mid October 2010 to the end of November 2010. Unit 6 is scheduled to start in December 2010 and will last till the end of February 2011. Depending on the semester exams period, an extension till March 2011 is also possible.
