FEASIBILITY STUDY OF A PASSIVE HOUSE: ANKARA CASE
The amount of residential energy consumption has a significant share over final energy consumption in Turkey which is increasing parallel to the rapid increase in population, economic growth and the number of houses. For this reason, energy savings in residential sector is of great importance in Turkey. In this study, technical feasibility study of a single detached Passive House located in Ankara, Turkey of which has cold and dry climate is investigated using building energy simulation software. House is designed to take advantage of solar radiation at maximum level with convenient shape, color and window/wall ratio. Model house has high insulation level and low air tightness. According to the simulations conducted, minimum space heating demand of the 3 bedroom, 120 m2 single detached house located in Ankara, Turkey is estimated as 6,2 kWh/m2-year, overcompensating the “15 kWh/m2-year” Passive House target sufficiently. The primary energy demand is calculated as 30,8 kWh/m2, marginally below the 120 kWh/m2 target.
