At this event, experts from the field of standardization will present the latest developments related to the sustainability of buildings and transport infrastructure. In particular, the new European standard UNE-EN 15978 will be addressed, which will mark a before and after in the environmental assessment of buildings, with a special focus on the calculation of global warming potential in accordance with the new EPBD. In addition, the development of new standards on the sustainability of transport infrastructure will be analysed.
These advances are being developed in the European Committee on Sustainability in Construction, whose equivalent in Spain is the CTN-UNE 198, and during the day we will have the participation of the main actors that are part of these developments.
Among the speakers are specialists from key organisations such as CEN/TC 350, IECA, FCC Construcción, and Fundación CIRCE, who will share their knowledge and vision of the future of sustainability in the sector.
Don’t miss this opportunity to be at the forefront of standardization and public sustainability policies!
