ISO 50003 HVAC Control Impact on Certified Energy Performance Testing

Comprehensive Guide to ISO 50003 HVAC Control Impact on Certified Energy Performance Testing Services Provided by Eurolab

ISO 50003 is an international standard that specifies the requirements for certified energy performance testing of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. This standard is part of the ISO 50001 series, which focuses on energy management systems.

The standard-related information includes:

ISO 50003:2014(E) Energy efficiency and renewable energy technologies Energy performance testing of HVAC systems

ASTM E2297-19 Standard Guide for Energy Performance Testing of Commercial Building Systems

EN 15217:2007A1:2011 Building management - General requirements, definitions, and description of the fundamental concepts of building automation, control and building management

The European Unions Energy Efficiency Directive (EED) requires buildings to be certified for energy performance.

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) provides a framework for energy performance testing.

National regulatory bodies, such as the UKs Building Regulations, require compliance with ISO 50003.

ISO 50003 is an international standard that has been adopted by several countries, including the United States, Germany, and France.

National standards, such as the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) Standard 90.1, provide additional requirements for energy performance testing.

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO)

The American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM)

The European Committee for Standardization (CEN)

ISO 50003 was first published in 2014 and has undergone revisions since then.

New standards are developed through a consensus-based process involving experts from industry, government, and academia.
