Greece is a country rich in renewable energy sources and, at the same time, a country in which the building sector is relatively energy-intensive. In October 2010 the EU Directive on the Energy Performance of Buildings was incorporated into Greek law. At the same time other legislative and administrative measures, as well as financial incentives, were implemented to improve the energy performance of buildings in Greece. Some of these measures were intended to increase the number of renewable energy applications in buildings and to improve the ways in which the country’s favourable climatic conditions are exploited. This package of measures and regulations has had a catalytic effect on the whole of the country’s building production and management system. Based on the first indications of the effects of the implementation of the new legislation, this study attempts to evaluate the impact that the latter has had on the progress of renewable energy applications in buildings in Greece.
