updated in this policy targetsnearly zero energy buildingsin by meps for buildings and certification of building energy performance building codes and labelling emphasizes market preparation activities an increased focus on code requirements for building retrofit projects better efforts to track actual building performance improved third party inspection and enforcement measures to minimize peak electrical demand as well as building thermal energy measures to encourage better design as well as prescriptive and performance measures better enabling of new technologies minimum energy performance standards meps for buildings in denmark are at a relatively high level and keep being regularly tightened and can be considered as an example of good practice furthermore future standards are defined well in advance making the transition easier
