Module 10 Now Live on RealVR: Exploring Sustainable Construction and EU Regulations

Updated: Oct 15


We are thrilled to announce the release of Module X: Construction, Basic Concepts, and Applicable Law on the RealVR platform. This module delves into the fundamental principles of construction, focusing on sustainability, energy efficiency, and the regulatory frameworks governing building practices within the European Union (EU). Funded by the Erasmus+ program (Project Number: 2021-1-BG01-KA220-VET-000034659), this module equips learners with the knowledge necessary to navigate modern construction practices and comply with EU regulations.


What You’ll Learn in Module X


In this module, learners will gain valuable insights into:

  • Basic concepts of residential and non-residential building classifications

  • Key types of energy-efficient buildings, including Passive Houses, Low-Energy Buildings, and Nearly Zero-Energy Buildings (NZEB)

  • The importance of building renovation for energy efficiency and safety

  • Compliance with critical EU legislation, including the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) and the European Green Deal

  • The role of digital technologies like Building Information Modeling (BIM) in sustainable construction


Why This Module Matters


Sustainable construction is at the heart of the EU’s efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and achieve a climate-neutral economy by 2050. Real estate professionals, developers, and property owners must understand the principles of energy-efficient construction and the applicable legal frameworks. Module X offers practical knowledge to meet these goals while maximizing building performance and value.


Key Aspects of Sustainable Construction


  1. Building Types: Learn about the classifications of residential and non-residential buildings, which play different roles in meeting energy efficiency targets. Non-residential buildings, including offices and schools, account for a significant portion of energy consumption and require specific approaches to energy management.

  2. Energy-Efficient Buildings: This module highlights several energy-efficient building types, including Passive Houses that rely on solar energy for heating and Nearly Zero-Energy Buildings (NZEB), which use renewable energy sources to meet the majority of their energy needs.

  3. Renovation and Energy Performance: Renovating older buildings to improve energy efficiency is critical to reducing energy consumption and enhancing sustainability. Upgrading insulation, heating systems, and integrating renewable energy sources are some of the key strategies explored.

  4. EU Legislative Framework: Module X covers essential EU regulations like the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) and the European Green Deal, which aim to improve building energy efficiency and promote sustainability across Europe.

  5. Digital Technologies in Construction: Discover how technologies like Building Information Modeling (BIM) enable more efficient construction practices and energy management, optimizing the sustainability of building projects.
