04/2009 New Renewable Energy Directive foresees Renewable Heat Ordinances

In December 2008, the European Parliament and Council agreed on a Renewable Energy Directive. Among others the Directive foresees that Member States require by 2015 in their building regulations and codes the use of minimum levels of energy from renewable sources for heating and cooling. The ProSTO project came just at the right time. It will provide a lot of the answers local, regional and national governments need, when designing successful and efficient renewables obligations.

Ordinance Components
Flanking Measures
Monitoring

The STO Developers Toolbox provides useful and practical tools to all those who are preparing, implementing or supporting a STO in their community.

The various tools range from text proposals for the ordinance over background reports and best practice examples to software tools for mapping the potential of solar thermal in your community. New tools have been developed and already available instruments have been compiled by the ProSTO project partners.
