Cyprus transposed the EPBD into national legislation by issuing the law that regulates the Energy Performance of Buildings in 2006, which has since been amended three times in order to transpose Directive 2010/31/EU and better adjust the EPBD to national circumstances.
Based on this legal framework, several secondary pieces of legislation have been issued defining minimum energy performance requirements, technical requirements for NZEB, requirements for technical building systems, inspection processes and other issues related to energy performance of buildings.
Public consultation regarding new legislation that will transpose Directive 2018/844/EU into national legislation and new minimum energy performance requirements has been concluded in 2019. The new legislation and new minimum energy performance requirements are expected to be set in force during the first semester of 2020.
