Activities carried out during the SRI test phase

It aims to tailor the SRI technical framework to the national context by analysing the state-of-the-art of technologies currently available on the market, and adjusting the catalogue of smart-ready services accordingly. It will also explore the possible integration of the SRI into Energy Performance Certificates (EPC), and analyse the correlation between SRI and EPC classes. SRI assessments will be conducted by: experts from ENEA, University of Cassino and Lazio Meridionale  and other academic institutions; experts involved in technical working groups of Italian standardization bodies; external ad-hoc trained SRI assessors. At least 30 SRI assessments will be conducted, covering buildings of different uses and climatic zones.
