 ==== Measurement results ====
-Measurements carried out in 114 Passive House apartments which were part of the [[http://www.cepheus.de/|CEPHEUS]] project showed average savings of approx. 90%. In other words, the Passive House is a “factor 10 house” which only uses **one tenth** of the energy used by average houses. Please click [[Basics:Energy and ecology:Primary energy – quantifying sustainability|here]] to learn about the amount of **primary energy** this translates to. The passive house concept delivers - the savings are real, there is no performance gap.
