HIT2GAP is a four-year project which began in September 2015 and will run to September 2019. Its aim is to reduce the gap between the theoretical energy performance of buildings and the actual consumption in use.A typical offi ce building will use much more energy than the design team and client expected at the design and construction phases. HIT2GAP is seeking to reduce the gap between the anticipated energy use and what actually happens once a building is occupied. The reasons for ‘the gap’ are multifarious, ranging from compromises at the design and construction stages, to construction/ detailing and commissioning issues and unexpected user behaviours. Furthermore, renewable energy devices and other building services do not always work well with each other, and this can reduce the overall impact of devices installed to save energy.HIT2GAP cannot solve all of these problems, and while the project is focused specifi cally on eliminating energy profl igacy in buildings, it also aims to identify other contributory factors.
