Title PERFORMANCE-BASED MODEL AND ANALYSIS
Summary Currently, the trend in the policy design in the building sector is to move towards the performance-based regulation and standards (such as the recast of the EPBD, Hungarian GIS). Although this trend in policy is not new, determination of the energy savings potential and the resulting CO2 reduction has been relying mainly on the component-based approaches so far (see Table xx, Chapter xx for overview of the studies using component-based approach). However, need for a more radical transformation towards low-energy economy, as well as the need for integrated design makes it inevitable, that energy savings potentials are determined on the basis of performance. Several countries have already designed their building codes based on energy performance (Hui, 2002). The performance approach leaves a greater space for innovation and new techniques in energy efficiency design (Hui, 2009).
