Remedial actions and restructuration works enhancing the energy performance of a building should be evaluated by comparing the baseline and the situation improved, i.e., that which is achieved after the retrofit measures will be implemented. This comparison may be done, as a function of the operating level of the audit, using simplified methods or by evaluating the global effects, through a complete energy assessment by means of simulation software. This chapter examines the issues of the evaluation of the performance improvement and provides the elements of choice to provide an approach consistent with the operational level adopted. © Springer-Verlag London 2013.

Abstract
Remedial actions and restructuration works enhancing the energy performance of a building should be evaluated by comparing the baseline and the situation improved, i.e., that which is achieved after the retrofit measures will be implemented. This comparison may be done, as a function of the operating level of the audit, using simplified methods or by evaluating the global effects, through a complete energy assessment by means of simulation software. This chapter examines the issues of the evaluation of the performance improvement and provides the elements of choice to provide an approach consistent with the operational level adopted. © Springer-Verlag London 2013.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
