The IEA-EBC Annex 56 project {\guillemotleft}Cost-Effective Energy and Carbon Emissions Optimization in Building Renovation{\guillemotright} intends to develop the basics for future standards, which aim at maximizing effects on reducing carbon emissions and primary energy use while taking into account the cost-effectiveness of related measures. The IEA EBC Annex 56 project pays special attention to cost effective energy related renovation of existing residential buildings and low-tech office buildings (without air conditioning systems).
