Total floor area of the non-residential building sector

Non-residential buildings comprise a more heterogeneous and complex sector compared to the residential sector due to variations in usage pattern, energy intensity and construction techniques. The non-residential building sector is divided into the following seven sub-categories: wholesale and retail, offices, educational facilities, hotels and restaurants, hospitals, sports facilities and others (in accordance to the Directive on the energy performance of buildings (EPBD 2002 and EPBD 2010)).
