+ | |||
+ | A key issue that often arises with reference to realised innovative, energy efficient buildings and retrofits is whether the planned low energy demand is actually achieved in a measurable way. The aim is to determine the total consumption of a building using simple means and with as little effort as possible, and to be able to differentiate between the areas for heating, hot water and electricity use as far as possible. This question has nothing to do with significantly more extensive scientific analyses. | ||

+ | ===== Summary of minimal monitoring ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | The most important points regarding minimal monitoring are summarised below: \\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Monthly meter readings of all essential meters (electricity, | ||
+ | |||
+ | * An additional heat meter is necessary in case of a solar heating system. \\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Distribution and conversion losses are taken into account as a simplified overall value. \\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | * The energy consumption for hot water generation is calculated from the consumption data of the summer months. An overall adjustment can be made here additionally in order to take into account the summer/ | ||
+ | |||
+ | * In the case of apartment blocks, the non-utilisable distribution losses are taken into account as an overall value. \\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Temperature adjustment of the consumption values can be carried out optionally if there are variations from the calculated value (standard 20 °C) and these are known. \\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | * The total annual electricity consumption (domestic electricity and electricity for technology/ | ||
+ | |||
+ | Despite the limited accuracy of this method for **estimation of heat consumption** and disregarding of the various influencing factors, this provides a valuable overall picture for an initial assessment of the building. \\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | Calculation of the **primary energy use** is reliable due to the use of the total unadjusted final energy consumption and can be used successfully for checking compliance with the PE limit value. \\ | ||
