A comparison of the UK Standard Assessment Procedure and detailed simulation of solar energy systems for dwellings
The drive to reduce worldwide carbon emissions that are directly associated with dwellings and to achieve a zero carbon home dictates that renewable energy technologies will have an increasingly large role in the built environment. The Standard Assessment Procedure (SAP), formulated by the Building Research Establishment (BRE), is the UK Government's approved methodology for assessing the energy ratings of dwellings. This article presents an evaluation of the advantage given to SAP ratings by the domestic installation of typical photovoltaic (PV) and solar domestic hot-water (SDHW) systems in the UK. Comparable PV and SDHW systems will also be simulated with more detailed modelling packages. Results suggest that calculation variances can exist between the SAP methodology and detailed simulation methods, especially for higher performance systems that deviate from the default efficiency parameters.
