SQ Consult was partner in a consortium that assessed policies and regulation at selected countries in the world driving the improvements in water pump performance and energy efficiency in residential, commercial and public buildings. Grundfos is the largest manufacturer of water pumps in the world and required a global policy benchmark related to water and energy efficiency in the built environment to inform its business strategy.
Activities included an in-depth evaluation of the implementation of policies and programs related to the efficient use of energy and water in 5 EU Member States and a selection of “hot spots” with advanced or innovative legislation in different regions of the world.
For the case of EU countries the implementation of the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD), European Building Codes, Energy Efficiency Directive and other relevant European and National Energy Efficiency legislation were evaluated.
