-  * **User-Friendly Material Selection**: The material input has been improved through an extensive building material list and a filtering mechanism. Additionally, the input for windows and doors has been made more intuitive.+  * **User-friendly material selection**: The material input has been improved through an extensive building material list and a filtering mechanism. Additionally, the input for windows and doors has been made more intuitive.
   * **Integration with PHPP**: MEET 2 is linked to PHPP 10, enabling a detailed determination of operational energy. All relevant energy data, as well as data on the composition of the building envelope, are transferred easily using an embedded interface sheet.   * **Integration with PHPP**: MEET 2 is linked to PHPP 10, enabling a detailed determination of operational energy.

   - **Model your project**  in PHPP (your usual workflow). \\ Remember to **define CO<sub>2</sub>  factors**  for your region in the “2-CO<sub>2</sub>  factors user-defined” sheet. Electricity mixes differ from country to country and are changing constantly. For Germany, for instance, we assumed a decarbonisation pathway over the next 40 years, with average values of 0.198 kg CO<sub>2e</sub>  /kWh for heating electricity (cold period) and 0.093 kg CO<sub>2e</sub>  /kWh for user/household electricity (all year round). Current developments, however, suggest that this assumption may even be somewhat too optimistic.   - **Model your project**  in PHPP (your usual workflow). \\ Remember to **define CO<sub>2</sub>  factors**  for your region in the “2-CO<sub>2</sub>  factors user-defined” sheet.

   * **Compare assemblies systematically**: In heating-dominated climates, transmission losses strongly correlate with total demand. Thus, create several possible options of thermal envelope components (walls, roofs, windows...) in PHPP, even if you don’t apply them in your PHPP project. In MEET, you can then evaluate how the manufacturing energy and resulting GWP relate to the theoretical transmission losses per m² of the component. You can find the comparison charts in the input sheets “Opaque assemblies” and “Windos&Doors” to the right. \\ For cooling-dominated climates, it is better to create PHPP variants and track the resulting outcomes of each variant.    * **Compare assemblies systematically**: In heating-dominated climates, transmission losses strongly correlate with total demand.
