IEA EBC Annex 58 - Reliable characterisation of building energy efficiency using full-scale dynamic measurements

Project leader overall project: Rainer Pfluger

Project leader University of Innsbruck: Rainer Pfluger

Project staff: Gabriel Rojas

Project partner:

• Vienna University of Technology - Institute of Computer Aided Automation - AB Automation Systems

Funding organisation: FFG - Research Cooperation International Energy Agency

Duration: 01.11.2013 - 31.03.2016

Summary of the project

Simple and robust prediction models for the dynamic thermal behaviour of buildings are required for the evaluation of energy efficiency measures and for connection to smart grids. This project provides the scientific basis and the first solution approaches for the energy characterisation of buildings with the help of dynamic measurements. In the future, these should be made possible during building utilisation and with existing infrastructure.
