Building energy modelling is the process of analysing and simulating the energy consumption of a building on the basis of its technical parameters and use. It makes it possible to predict energy demand required for heating, cooling, ventilation and hot water preparation. The model takes into account, among other things:
- partition insulation,
- the tightness of the building,
- window area,
- orientation to the world,
- local climatic conditions.
Installation systems such as heating, mechanical ventilation or heat pumps. Based on this data, specialised software creates a simulation of the building's operation under various weather and operating conditions. This allows the energy efficiency of the project to be assessed even before construction begins.
Energy modelling also helps to compare different options for design solutions. This allows the developer and designer for single-family houses can choose solutions that reduce energy consumption and the running costs of the building.
