Amendment 34 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 11
Recital 11
(11) Measures to improve further the energy performance of buildings should take into account climatic conditions, including adaptation to climate change, local conditions as well as indoor climate environment and cost-effectiveness. Those measures should not affect other requirements concerning buildings such as accessibility , fire safety, acoustic safety and seismic safety and the intended use of the building.

Recital 20 a (new)
Recital 20 a (new)
(20 a) Emphasises the importance of a market-driven transition in the electrification of transport and the need for this Directive to create a cost-effective framework that does not lead to unreasonable cost increases for citizens. Underlines that energy efficiency measures for buildings should take into account different national and local characteristics, such as sparsely populated areas and already implemented improvements for energy efficiency in Member States.
Amendment 47 #

Recital 35
Recital 35
(35) Member States should support energy performance upgrades of existing buildings that contribute to achieving a healthy indoor environment, including through the removal of asbestos, following acoustic safety and other harmful substances, preventing the illegal removal of harmful substances, and facilitating compliance with existing legislative acts such as Directives 2009/148/EU37 and (EU) 2016/228438 of the European Parliament and of the Council. _________________ 37 Directive 2009/148/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 30 November 2009 on the protection of workers from the risks related to exposure to asbestos at work (OJ L 330, 16.12.2009, p. 28). 38 Directive (EU) 2016/2284 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 December 2016 on the reduction of national emissions of certain atmospheric pollutants, amending Directive 2003/35/EC and repealing Directive 2001/81/EC (OJ L 344, 17.12.2016, p. 1).

Recital 37
Recital 37
(37) Combined with an increased share of renewable electricity production, electric vehicles produce fewer greenhouse gas emissions. Electric vehicles constitute an important component of a clean energy transition based on energy efficiency measures, alternative fuels, renewable energy and innovative solutions for the management of energy flexibility. Building codes can be effectively used to introduce targeted requirements to support the deployment of recharging infrastructure in car parks of residential and non-residential buildings as well as in truck depots and logistic hubs. Member States should remove barriers such as split incentives and administrative complications which individual owners encounter when trying to install a recharging point on their parking space.

Article 2 – paragraph 1 – point 57 d (new)
57 d. If multiple charging points using the same distribution grid connection without sufficient overall grid capacity are being installed in one building, a mandatory installation of a dynamic load management system behind the meter of that building should be implemented. Such a requirement avoids an extensive enhancement of the grid connection and reduces overall installation costs.
