Abstract

The present paper aims to explore the current energy performance of the existing housing stock of Greece while also examining efficient and cost effective the energy upgrades in buildings that have undergone refurbishment since the transposition of the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive in 2010. A literature review of energy performance legislation and previous surveys is presented. Case studies of dwellings with Energy Performance Certificates and dwellings that have undergone energy upgrades as well as occupancy survey of inhabitants of the city of Naousa provide an overview of the energy status of the stock as well as the cost aspect of the upgrades. The answers from the survey give an insight in the actions and the behaviour of the users within the environment of their homes.
