Overall assessment of SRI test phase

Coordination of SRI test phase

Denmark volunteered to the non-committal test phase after the first call for expression of interest sent by the European Commission to all Member States in October 2021. The Danish test phase was led by the Danish Energy Agency (DEA) in cooperation with the Danish Technological Institute (DTI).

Timeline of SRI test phase

The test phase started in December 2021, and it finished in 2023.

Activities carried out during the SRI test phase

During the testing phase, 27 SRI assessments were performed in various buildings, including old and new, with different energy carriers. The assessments are carried out by assessors from the Danish Technological Institute. In detail, 9 single-family and 5 apartment buildings, 7 offices, 5 education and institution buildings and 1 shopping centre.
In addition, interviews of building owners for the performed tests were carried out, focusing on the building owners’ expectations as well as understanding and experience of the labelling. A proposal in terms of how the SRI methodology can or should be adapted to the Danish context was prepared.
