Report on the use of (energy) data within within Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) schemes
This document describes the outcome of ePANACEA task T2.4 “Supplementing EPCs with additional measured or calculated data”. An inventory of data is presented, which is an overview of all data that can be used to supplement or replace the current energy performance certificate. Various types of data are explored, related to building geometry, building envelope, boundary conditions, occupant behaviour, HVAC systems and energy performance. Moreover, a literature review has explored the potential impact of the incorporation of this data. A scoping analysis is performed, in which we start from an inventory of all data that can be measured, after which the scope is narrowed to only the data variables that can be relevant to incorporate in the EPC. Next, the selected data variables are further analysed via their nature and accessibility, as well as their post-processing methods. Furthermore, the literature review shows that several types of data have an influence on the uncertainty of building performance analyses, which can be overcome by calibrating the performance assessment model. However, the occupant behaviour related inputs have one of the most important impacts on the energy performance calculation.
