Led by the Ministry of Environment and Energy Security and supported by ENEA (National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and Sustainable Economic Development), this 12-month pilot aims to refine the SRI framework for the national context.

Italy’s test phase will focus on assessing the state-of-the-art smart technologies available on the market, adapting the SRI service catalogue, and exploring potential integration with Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs). It will also analyse the correlation between SRI scores and EPC classes. The assessments will be conducted by ENEA experts, academic institutions such as the University of Cassino and Lazio Meridionale, members of Italian standardization bodies, and external trained assessors, covering at least 30 buildings across different use cases and climatic zones.

The SRI rollout continues to gain momentum across Europe, with 16 EU countries now having launched national test phases.
