Arch02175.pngEnergos advanced project settings: Usage Electricity pane

On the Usage Profile pane, the choice of Residential or Non Residential from the Building Type list determines which parameters display on the Usage Electricity pane.

Electricity usage for a residential project

Select the electrical equipment that is used within the building, and for each selected item, indicate whether it is inside or outside of the building’s thermal envelope. Appliances that are outside of the thermal envelope participate differently in the energy calculations, since they still consume electricity, but do not contribute to the heat gain.

Specify the equipment system for each participating appliance.

The equipment system list for electrical equipment and appliances can be modified; see Specifying system sets.

If electricity usage is offset by the ability to generate electricity on-site, select On Site Electricity Generation and choose the generation method. Specify the planned annual electrical energy generated by the system.

Electricity usage for a non-residential project

For non-residential projects, create a list of equipment that uses electricity and specify the usage parameters for each. Similar to residential projects, if there is a method of generating electricity on the building site, specify its parameters since the energy usage is offset.

Equipment list

 

Add

Opens the Electricity Equipment Edit dialog box, to specify the parameters of the appliance to add to the list of electrical equipment.

For general hourly or annual usage, indicate whether the equipment is existing; otherwise, planned is assumed. Specify the quantity and typical energy consumption parameters over time.

For specific appliance types, indicate whether the equipment is inside or outside of the building’s thermal envelope. When selected, the appliance is inside the envelope; otherwise, it is outside the envelope. Appliances that are outside of the thermal envelope participate differently in the energy calculations, since they still consume electricity but do not contribute to the heat gain. Specify the quantity and select the appliance system to which it belongs. The system list can be modified; see Specifying system sets.

Edit

Opens the Electricity Equipment Edit dialog box, to edit the parameters of the selected electrical appliance or general usage

Delete

Deletes the currently selected equipment from the list

Cooking Space Use Pattern

Select the type of usage that occurs in the cooking area of the building. The system list can be modified; see Specifying system sets.

On Site Electricity Generation

If electricity usage is offset by the ability to generate electricity on-site, select On Site Electricity Generation and choose the generation method. Specify the planned annual electrical energy generated by the system.
