ENERTECH REMODECE Software Tool: Home Energy Consumption Calculation

ENERTECH REMODECE is a software tool developed to calculate home energy consumption. The tool allows users to input specific information about their appliances and habits, and generates a report table with energy consumption estimates. The interface is currently in English but can be translated for each country.

  1. REMODECE MEETING September, the 24th 2007 ENERTECH REMODECE

  2. Software tool ENERTECH REMODECE

  3. Current status • Main inputs per type of appliance have been defined • Interface was developped to test and validate the different options (in English for dev purpose but has to be translate for each country) • Calulation script was coded to generate a simple report table (using French average consumptions) • Files went on-line to test the compatibility with the Internet server Test URL http://www.isr.uc.pt/~remodece/softwaretool/softwaret.php ENERTECH REMODECE

  4. Home page Let you select your country ENERTECH REMODECE

  5. Interface page • Questions were grouped by type • All the questions are needed for the calculation • All the questions are on the same page  the ergonomics of the interface has to be re-worked ENERTECH REMODECE

  6. Interface page I - GENERAL QUESTIONS ENERTECH REMODECE

  7. Interface page I - GENERAL QUESTIONS • How many people live in your home ? Used to calculate the lighting, cooking and water heating consumption • Your type of household ? Used to calculate the lighting and heating consumption • Heated area ? Used to calculate the heating consumption • Building year ? Used to calculate the heating consumption ENERTECH REMODECE

  8. Interface page I - GENERAL QUESTIONS • What type of energy do you use for hot water production ? Used to calculate the water heating consumption • What type of energy do you use for heating ?Used to calculate the heating consumption • What type of energy do you use for cooking ?Used to calculate the cooking consumption • What’s your last year electricity consumption ? Used to calculate the total savings ENERTECH REMODECE

  9. Interface page II – COLD APPLIANCES Fridge and Freezer ENERTECH REMODECE

  10. Interface page II – COLD APPLIANCES Fridge and Freezer • Posibility to define two fridge and two freezer • Type ? (Fridge with/without freezer, Vertical freezer, Chest freezer) • Size ?(small / medium / large) • Age of the appliance ? (>10years, 5-10years, <5years) YearlykWhConsumption = AvgConsumption * CoeffSize * CoeffAge ENERTECH REMODECE

  12. Interface page II – WASHING / DRYING Dishwasher • How do you wash your dishes ? Define if there is a dishwasher or not • Age of the appliance ? (>10years, 5-10years, <5years) • Number of washing cycles per week ? YearlykWhConsumption = AvgCycleConsumption * NbWeekCycles * 48 * CoeffAge ENERTECH REMODECE

  13. Interface page II – WASHING / DRYING Washing machine • Number of washing cycles per week at 40°C ? • Number of washing cycles per week at 60°C ? • Number of washing cycles per week at 90°C ? • Age of the appliance ? (>10years, 5-10years, <5years) YearlykWhConsumption = [(AvgCon40 * Nb40) + (AvgCon60 * Nb60) + (AvgCon90 * Nb90)] * 48 * CoeffAge ENERTECH REMODECE

  14. Interface page II – WASHING / DRYING Clothes dryer • Type ? (None / Hot air dryer / Tumble dryer) • Number of washing cycles per week ? • Age of the appliance ? (>10years, 5-10years, <5years) YearlykWhConsumption = AvgCycleConsumption * NbWeekCycles * 48 * CoeffAge ENERTECH REMODECE

  15. Interface page IV – LIGHTING ENERTECH REMODECE

  16. Interface page IV – LIGHTING • Number of low-wattage halogen lamps ? • Number of incandescent lamps ? • Number of high-wattage halogen lamps ? • Number of compact fluorescent lamp ? • Number of fluorescent tubes ? YearlykWhConsumption = AvgHourPerPerson * NbPersons * TotalWattage * CoeffLight / 1000 ENERTECH REMODECE

  17. Interface page V - ENTERTAINMENT ENERTECH REMODECE

  18. Interface page V – ENTERTAINMENT TV • Number of TV’s ? Small TV / Large TV / Small LCD TV / Large LCD TV / Plasma TV beamer • Number of hours per week ? YearlykWhConsumption = (AvgConsumptionSmallTV * NbSmallTV * CoeffStandBy) + ... * 48 / 1000 ENERTECH REMODECE

  19. Interface page V – ENTERTAINMENT Peripherials • Number of peripherials for each type ? YearlykWhConsumption = ((AvgConsumptionPeripherial1* NbPeripherial1 * CoeffStandBy) + ... ENERTECH REMODECE

  20. Interface page V – ENTERTAINMENT Computer • Number of computer’s for each type ? PC with tube <=17’, PC with tube >=19’, PC with lcd <=17’, PC with LCD >=19’ , laptop YearlykWhConsumption = ((AvgConsumptionComputerType1 * NbComputerType1 * CoeffStandBy) + ... ENERTECH REMODECE

  21. Interface page V – ENTERTAINMENT Computer peripherials • Number of peripherials for each type ?Printer / Photocopier / Fax / Phone / Wireless phone / Internet modem (ADSL) YearlykWhConsumption = ((AvgConsumptionPeripherialsType1 * NbPeripherialsType1 * CoeffStandBy) + ... ENERTECH REMODECE

  22. Result tables • Calculated using : • High efficiency appliances • Minimum stanby • LFC light bulbs ... Calculated from user input ENERTECH REMODECE

  23. What’s next ? • Add more visual results (graphs...) and give more explanation and hints in the result window • Translate the pages for each country • Need to adapt the parameters for each country Average consumptions by appliances, stand-by coefficients, number of lighting hours… ENERTECH REMODECE
