Energy performance certification (EPC) of buildings results in a label for the buildings. Every label has to correspond to a fixed energy consumption per year. Energy consumption taken as a basis for the certification is to reflect efficiency of energy use in buildings and stimulate the occupiers to become more aware of the effect of their behaviour. The method of energy performance efficiency calculation is proposed and numerical values of annual energy consumption are elaborated on the ground of these two aims, European Union requirements and Dutch experience as energy performance efficiency indicators.

“…The authors concluded that the more time interval is allowed between observed data, the better regression model quality is obtained, regardless of the nature of the employed regression model. Similarly, Richalet et al (2001) presented an assessment methodology for single family dwellings which consists of deriving the thermal characteristics through the development of building energy signatures using continuous onsite measurements. Those thermal parameters are then used to determine a normalised heating annual consumption based on standards occupant schedule and weather conditions.…”

The strict CO2 emission targets set to tackle the global climate change associated with greenhouse gas emission exerts so much pressure on our cities which contribute up to 75 % of the global carbon dioxide emission level, with buildings being the largest contributor (UNEP, 2015). Premised on this fact, urban planners are required to implement proactive energy planning strategies not only to meet these targets but also ensure that future cities development is performed in a way that promotes energy-efficiency. This article gives an overview of the stateof-art of energy planning and forecasting approaches for aiding physical improvement strategies in the building sector. Unlike previous reviews, which have only addressed the strengths as well as weaknesses of some of the approaches while referring to some relevant examples from the literature, this article focuses on critically analysing more approaches namely; 2D GIS and 3DGIS (CityGML) based energy prediction approaches, based on their frequent intervention scale, applicability in the building life cycle, and conventional prediction process. This will be followed by unravelling the gaps and issues pertaining to the reviewed approaches. Finally, based on the identified problems, future research prospects are recommended.

“…The estimation of building energy performance could be done by the simplified method -using a energy consumption label of a building (Richalet et al 2001;Gram-Hanssen et al 2007;Corrado, Fabrizio 2006). While applying this method, the total energy consumption of a building is estimated without the exclusion of particular energy consumption components.…”

The results of analysis presented in the paper are related to the certification of energy performance in buildings using calculation methods, when the real energy consumption of the building is not analyzed. Energy consumption for cooling is not examined. Heat transmission losses could be less than the sum of the heat gains of a building if building thermal insulation is sufficient. Currently, the whole amount of heat gains is included into calculation without the evaluation of time parameters. No limit conditions are specified in order to define surplus heat flows and the amount of heat flows so that energy performance of building is calculated. Thus, difference between heat gains and heat flows of a building could be negative. In the paper the basic formation schemes of heat gain access and accumulation are presented due to the presence of people and the bright period of the day. The most adverse circumstances are analyzed for the composition of the proposed schemes. The composition of estimating heat gains is the same for all categories of buildings. Calculation equations have been composed for the estimation of heat gains according to the basic formation schemes. The average monthly parameters of the heating season are used for calculation. The analysis of calculation has been done for the different categories of buildings in order to compare the results of building energy consumption when limit conditions for heat gains are estimated and vice versa. The analysis of different calculation methods of energy consumption has showed that limit conditions for heat gains are important to evaluate the calculation methodology of energy performance for building certification needs. It is important that the calculation methodology of energy performance for building certification would be universal for all EU member states. The presented limit conditions of the heat gains of a building could be used for improving calculation methods of energy consumption in the building certification process. Santrauka Straipsnyje pateiktu tyrimu rezultatai susieti su tais atvejais, kai pastatu energinis naudingumas ivertinamas skaičiavimo būdu, neatsižvelgiant i realius pastato energijos suvartojimo rodiklius. Energijos sanaudos pastato vesinimui neivertintos. Jei pastatas gerai apšiltintas, jo šilumos nuostoliai gali būti mažesni už suminius pritekančios šilumos kiekius. Dabartiniu metu skaičiuojant pastato energijos sanaudas ivertinami visi pritekančios šilumos kiekiai, išsiskiriantys pastate ar i ji patenkantys iš išores. Kol kas neaptarti laikiniai pritekančios šilumos i pastata parametrai, neaptartos ribines salygos, pagal kurias turi būti nustatyti pertekline pritekanti šiluma ir pritekančios šilumos kiekiai, kuriuos būtina vertinti skaičiuojant pastato energijos sanaudas. Todel skirtumas tarp pastato šilumos nuostoliu ir pritekančios šilumos kiekiu gali būti minusinis, t. y. pastatas pradeda gaminti energija. Darbe pateiktos autoriu sudarytos principines pritekančios šilumos kiekiu i pastata schemos per para, priklausomai nuo žmoniu buvimo pastate ta para, ir šviesaus paros laikotarpio trukmes. Sudarant šias schemas, pasirinktas pats nepalankiausias pritekančios šilumos atvejis, bendras visu naudojimo paskirčiu pastatams. Pagal šias schemas sudarytos formules, apibūdinančios ribines šilumos pritekejimo salygas, ir pagal jas buvo atlikti ivairios paskirties pastatu kontroliniai energijos sanaudu skaičiavimai pagal šildymo sezono vidutinius menesio rodiklius. Šiu skaičiavimu rezultatai rodo, kad šilumos pritekejimo i pastata ribiniu salygu ivertinimas daro didele itaka pastato energijos sanaudu skaičiavimu rezultatams. Svarbu, kad pastatu energinio naudingumo sertifikavimo skaičiavimo metodikos būtu paremtos tais pačiais pastatu energijos suvartojimo vertinimo principais. Straipsnyje autoriu pateiktos šilumos pritekejimo ribines salygos galetu būti panaudotos tikslinant skaičiavimo metodikos principus pastatu energiniam naudingumui ivertinti.
