space_heating_requirement

annual space heating energy requirement in kWh based on building HLI.

requirement is reduced if rebound > 0 above a threshold equivalent to HLI ~ 1.4.

space_heating_requirement(hli, floor_area, rebound = 0.4, params)

Arguments

hli

heat loss indicator

floor_area

treated floor area

rebound

rebound 0-1

params

scenario parameters (only used for HDD in this instance)

Value

kWh/m2/year

Examples

params <- scenario_params(sD,2025)
space_heating_requirement(1.2,100,0,params)
#> [1] 6324.48
space_heating_requirement(1.2,100,0.4,params)
#> [1] 6324.48
