Ed’s note: What makes a building smart?

In two days’ time, that is on the 16th of December 2021, The Directorate-General for Energy (DG Ener) is hosting an online event in order to launch its new Smart Readiness Indicator (SRI) platform.

That is a highly regarded new ‘adventure’ from the EU Commission because the platform will act as an exchange forum, involving all interested stakeholders and EU countries, as well as a forward-looking discussion hub for technical, regulatory and implementation aspects of the topic.

The SRI platform will also support working groups focusing on specific elements, such as exchanging testing experiences, methodological aspects or aspects related to the assessment and implementation of the SRI such as the service catalogues or the design of the SRI certificate.
