  1. 1. Investigation of impact of detached house buildings orientation on energy saving result of renovation scenarios and energy generation of installed PV panels in Växjö

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggd miljö och energiteknik (BET)

    Author : Hassan Ali; [2023]
    Keywords : Detached; single-family house; energy measure; simulation; heat demand energy; archetype; renovation; PV electricity generation.;

    Abstract : Most of the detached houses in Sweden were built more than 30 years ago, and most of them are oldand need a deep renovation. The renovation is an excellent opportunity to apply the energy measure witha combination of renewable energy such as PV solar, which could be a great option to reduce energyconsumption and contribute to reducing greenhouse emissions.

  3. 2. Calibration in Urban Building Energy Modeling

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Naeim Rashidfarokhi; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis work tries to study the annual calibration process for building performance simulations. The bottom-up modelling is a tool to predict energy consumption in Urban Building Energy Modeling (UBEM) which is a common approach to find the most appropriate retrofitting strategies or to monitor energy use for a group of buildings (an archetype), a neighbourhood or a city.

  4. 3. Data-driven retrofitting strategy for buildings in Minneberg, Stockholm

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : MARC NOHRA; [2020]
    Keywords : Urban building energy modelling; energy performance certificates; nearly zeroenergy buildings; primary energy consumption; data; retrofitting; Solar PV; Stadsbyggnadsenergi modellering; energideklaration; nollenergihus; primärenergital; data; eftermontering; solpaneller;

    Abstract : Complying with the Paris agreements requires substantial efforts in the building sector, and especially within the existing building stock which is responsible for a considerable amount of emissions and energy consumption. This master thesis focuses on the residential district of Minneberg, located in the west of Stockholm in Bromma. READ MORE

  5. 4. Building Archetype Development for Urban-Scale Energy Simulation of Existing City Districts : A study of the city of Uppsala

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Byggteknik och byggd miljö

    Author : Lukas Dahlström; [2020]
    Keywords : UBEM; Archetypes; Energy performance; Energy Performance Certificates;

    Abstract : In this master thesis, a methodology is proposed for building stock classification and archetype building development based on deterministic information available in Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) of existing buildings in the city of Uppsala.This study aims to answer if the EPC database can be used as a reliable data source for archetype development and further UBEM models.

  6. 5. Energy Use in the EU Building Stock - Case Study: UK

    University essay from Energisystem; Tekniska högskolan

    Author : Reza Arababadi; [2012]
    Keywords : archetype buildings; UK building stock; energy demand; bottom-up modelling; energy simulation;

    Abstract : Previous studies in building energy assessmnet have made it clear that the largest potential energy efficiency improvements are conected to the retrofitting of existing buildings. But, lack of information about the building stock and associated modelling tools is one of the barriers to assessment of energy efficiency strategies in the building stocks. READ MORE
