Likewise, the “National Home Labeling Computer Application” was improved, designed to load data from a home and issue the Energy Efficiency Label.

The Ministry of Energy invited the provinces and the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires to enter into agreements with the Undersecretary of Electric Power for the implementation of PRONEV.

The agency stressed that, currently, the Housing Labeling Application has more than 2,600 active users and more than 3,400 analyzed homes; Eight implementation experiences (pilot tests) have been carried out, analyzing through these a total of 1,357 homes throughout the country.

At the end of last year, the Undersecretariat of Electric Power exposed the need to have an adequate regulatory framework, which establishes the general guidelines of the energy efficiency labeling system, in order to promote its implementation throughout the national territory in a unified manner. .

Consequently, that Undersecretariat concluded that the implementation of passive and active energy efficiency measures in the residential sector “is fundamental”, given that it represents 27.4% of the total final energy consumption of the country, and that the construction sector in overall accounted for 37% of energy-related CO2 emissions in 2021, “so there is great potential in this sector to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and to achieve mitigation commitments and adaptation to climate change assumed by the National State”, according to the Resolution.
