Reducing energy consumption in houses from 2022

The Czech Republic has long been among the worst ranking EU Member States in terms of requirements for modern and efficient construction. However, starting on 1 January, this is going to change. Czech lawmakers have adopted a new legislation that establishes  that the evaluation criteria for determining the energy performance of a building will no longer be the quality of the building envelope alone, but also the consumption of primary non-renewable energy, which must not rise above 75 kWh/m²a.

It is important to note, however, that the new rules do not necessarily mean increased costs of house construction due to the need to purchase more expensive "greener" technologies. It will only be necessary to think more sophisticatedly about the architectural design, which in itself has a major impact on the resulting energy efficiency. If the architectural design has not been thought through in detail, this will have to be compensated for by the purchase of expensive technologies such as photovoltaic panels, heat recovery, etc. 

In view of the above, it is worth mentioning a few architectural and technical rules that should be followed while designing a house:

• Architectural rules: Conditions in the particular site, Orientation of the building to the sides of the world, Optimisation of the shape of the building and Thermal zoning of the layout.
• Technical rules: Thermal bridging, Opening fillings, Design and quality of the building envelope, Envelope air permeability, Controlled ventilation with heat recovery, Heat source and distribution

If you have any questions, feel free to contact us at info@enerfis.cz. In case you need to check the energy performance of your building, you can also have a Building Energy Performance Certificate (PENB) issued by us.

BREEAM® FAST TRACK 24 is now available for all BREEAM certifications

After the great success of the BREEAM FAST TRACK 24 being available for the BREEAM in Use certification (BIU), the Building Research Establishment (BRE) widened the use of FAST TRACK 24 to all BREEAM certifications, including the BREEAM New Construction assessment, starting on 1st September. 

How does it all work? FAST TRACK 24 guarantees you that BRE QA will give you feedback on you submission within 24 hours upon the confirmation of acceptance of your submission (note: the time limit for accepting/declining a submission is 24 hours as well). You can use the FAST TRACK 24 for one submission only (that means that if there was an error in your submission and you would need to resubmit, you would have to pay for FAST TRACK 24 again). Also note that the time limit of 24 hours relates only to the feedback on the one particular submission, not on the entire certification process.

Alongside the FAST TRACK 24 also exists a special service called “FAST TRACK”. Just like the FAST TRACK 24, you can use it with all types of BREEAM certifications, however the difference between the two is that FAST TRACK includes not only one submission, but three. On the other hand, the time limit for the QA feedback is not 24 hours, but 3 days upon the confirmation of acceptance, and in case of a resubmission, the time limit is 2 days.

Therefore, FAST TRACK 24 is ideal for you if you are confident that your submission is error-free, or if you are satisfied with just one submission expedited. On the other hand, you should choose FAST TRACK if you are going for a quick feedback on multiple submissions of one assessment, particularly if it is possible that those submissions might contain some errors, since FAST TRACK presumes the possibility of a resubmission.

If you are still not sure how BREEAM certification works, feel free to visit our article The BREEAM building certification or visit the BREEAM official website.

New Enectiva feature - Data series

Data series will help you to reach even better insight about your energy consumption. You would be able to  better implement saving measures and better detect energy wastes and leakes. In the end, you will save more energy and money.  

The principle of data series is simple. You can input (manually or automatically) whichever kind of data you wish into the Enectiva application, for example, from a sensor (CO2 sensor, humidity sensor, temperature sensor etc.). In the case of a factory, you can, for example, input the amount of product manufactured. Enectiva will then display your data series in function of time (or in function of another data series). 

For more detailed info, visit our article about New Enectiva feature - Data series

Enerfis blogs - CO2 sensor

CO2 can rise up to twice the recommended value in a closed room for 3 hours. This reduces productivity and increases fatigue. And people often do not realize that there is an excess of CO2 in the room, because increasing its concentration is very inconspicuous. However, the state of CO2 is an ideal way to effectively regulate forced ventilation without unnecessary energy losses due to excessive ventilation.

For more information visit our article on the impact of CO2 on our productivity and how to prevent it.

Most companies have opted for an energy audit

According to a survey conducted by KPMG, most Czech companies have decided to comply with the amendment to Act 406/2000 Coll. on energy management in the form of energy audit. This is a full 70% of respondents. Only 11% of all surveyed companies in the field of industry decided to implement ISO 50001.

A very interesting finding is the fact that companies that have decided to implement energy management see greater potential for savings in production technologies and companies that have done an energy audit then purely in the operation of buildings.

According to the survey, most companies plan to renovate their lighting in the coming years (22%), another 18% plan to invest in more efficient production technologies, 17% want to make better use of waste heat and 14% plan to insulate their buildings. 12% of companies are also planning to introduce automatic regulation of energy equipment and only 5.5% plan to invest in their own renewable energy sources.

Energy monitoring using the Enectiva API

The API (Application Programming Interface) allows Enectiva to connect to other company systems, measurement and control systems, or to your own devices designed for energy data collection. The energy management system thus becomes completely independent of the hardware used.

An example of using API:

• Consumption data can be sent to the application directly from your current MaR or building management system
• Costs from energy invoices are sent to Enectiva from the accounting software, so you can see them immediately in the energy statistics.
• Data on production, sales, and occupancy can be sent from the company's ERP systems and used for energy benchmarking.
• Thanks to the API, even the weather stations themselves can be integrated into Enectiva and data on temperatures or climate information usable within energy management can be sent.

The Enectiva API fits into our philosophy, where we want Enectiva to be a HW-independent system for efficient and affordable energy management.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

We would like to thank everyone for their cooperation in the past year and at the same time wish our customers, partners or just visitors to this site a lot of health and energy in 2016. Last year we managed to implement many interesting projects from online energy monitoring systems to implementation of ISO 50001 or BREEAM or LEED certification. We believe that 2016 will be no less interesting professionally and we are sincerely looking forward to the waiting technical challenges.
