Abstract

Based on the EPBD 2010 directive and the mandated method of cost-optimum calculation the forthcoming national regulations require “nearly zero energy buildings” which have high energy performance, significant share of renewables in covering the low energy need and harmonizing the requirement system and the cost-optimum. Known intention of MS as well as some research reports create the impression that predominant use of biomass in the forthcoming years will be the right way to fulfil the above requirements of nearly zero energy buildings. Nevertheless a brief analysis proves that these expectations are exaggerated due to either cost problem or seasonal system efficiency whilst some “secondary” environmental problem must not be forgotten.
