amending Annex IV (Energy) to the EEA Agreement
THE EEA JOINT COMMITTEE,
Having regard to the Agreement on the European Economic Area (“the EEA Agreement”), and in particular Article 98 thereof,
Whereas:
(1)Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 244/2012 of 16 January 2012 supplementing Directive 2010/31/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council on the energy performance of buildings by establishing a comparative methodology framework for calculating cost-optimal levels of minimum energy performance requirements for buildings and building elements 1 is to be incorporated into the EEA Agreement.
(2)Due to the specificities of Iceland’s relatively recent and uniform building stock, a temporary and conditional exemption from applying Directive 2010/31/EU on the energy performance of buildings was agreed, pursuant to Decision of the EEA Joint Committee No 135/2022 of 29 April 2022 amending Annex IV (Energy) to the EEA Agreement. This exemption applies to Directive 2010/31/EU as in force before the amendment by Directive (EU) 2018/844 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 30 May 2018. Delegated Regulation (EU) No 244/2012 should therefore not apply to Iceland. The exemption is strictly limited in time and should apply only until an agreement is reached concerning incorporation of Directive 2010/31/EU as amended by Directive (EU) 2018/844 into the EEA Agreement. An agreement should be deemed to be reached once Directive 2010/31/EU as amended by Directive (EU) 2018/844 has been incorporated into the EEA Agreement.
(3)Annex IV to the EEA Agreement should therefore be amended accordingly,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
The following point is inserted after point 17 (Directive 2010/31/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council) of Annex IV to the EEA Agreement:

The provisions of the Regulation shall, for the purposes of this Agreement, be read with the following adaptation:
The Regulation shall not apply to Iceland.’
