Nataliya AnisimovaCzech Technical University in Prague [email protected]
EU-goals:
20% share of renewable energies in overall EU energy consumption by 2020
20% reduction of greenhouse-gas emissions by 2020
Aim of the research: to define what costs have to be involved in energy efficiency increase in EU housing to reach the required standard
1. Construction 2. Utilization 3. Maintenance
Final energy demand QE =
Heating energy demand QH x Heating energy loss factor eH + + Domestic water heat energy Qwx Water heat energy loss factor eW
Primary energy demand Qp =
(Heating energy demand Qh + Domestic water heat energy Qw) x Energy loss factor ep
Energy loss coefficient ep for different heating systems:
- 0,5 – 0,6 – wood-pellet heating, - 0,7 – 0,9 – heat pump, - 1,3 – 1,4 – combustion heating, - 1,5 and more – old heating system.
A “typical” newly-built dwelling house
one- or multi-family house with 2-3 persons per dwelling usable floor area An= 242.3 m2; thermal covering area of the building A = 500.8 m2, ratio of covering area to cubic content A/Vae = 0.66 1/m; percentage of windows in total covering area f = 19.1 %; heating system – gas combustion boiler with a hot water
accumulator inside the heating area.

Costs of reduction in energy demand EUR 4 711 12 525 9 890
Average additional costs per 1 m2 EUR/m2 37.32 €
Financial support =
Average additional investment per 1 m2 x number of dwellings completed x average usable floor area of 1 dwelling
Conclusions:
Energy use in EU housing comprises the greatest part of total energy consumption and is above industry and transport figures.
Reduction in primary energy demand represents a reliable indicator of environmental efficiency of buildings.
Availability of sufficient financial support for the promotion of energy efficiency in housing will be essential to reach the stated target in EU overall energy efficiency.
