- | The methodology used to derive PER factors is based on the ideas that have previously been published in [Feist 2013] and [Feist 2014]. The approach described in these original publications were further developed, applied and analysed internationally, as outlined in this article. With an hourly resolution load profiles of the energy demand are simulated in the context of a future scenario - where the energy is supplied solely from renewable energy sources, including all necessary storage facilities (Figure 1). The individual calculations are based on climate data from various sources, the resulting PER factors describe how much more renewable energy must be supplied in order to cover the final energy consumed at the building, including all losses incurred along the way. For example, a PER-factor of 1.5 indicates that a surplus of 50% renewable primary energy has to be generated in order to be able to meet the final energy demand at the building. | + | The methodology used to derive PER factors is based on the ideas that have previously been published in [Feist 2013] and [Feist 2014] |

The PER factor is determined by the simultaneity of available energy resources and the energy demand, as this dictates how much energy needs to be temporarily stored before it is used. Short-term storage can technically be achieved fairly efficiently, | The PER factor is determined by the simultaneity of available energy resources and the energy demand, as this dictates how much energy needs to be temporarily stored before it is used.
