The primary goal of this deliverable is to conceive a comprehensive and internationally accepted method for assigning asset ratings in conjunction with the proposed weighting mechanism. A variety of performance measures, including energy efficiency, environmental sustainability, smart readiness, and non-energy aspects, like indoor environmental quality and accessibility, were included in the suggested method.
This report thoroughly describes the SmartLivingEPC framework’s asset rating calculation process. It describes the main steps and suppositions involved in calculating energy performance ratings, guaranteeing the incorporation of Building Information Modeling (BIM) for accurate and comprehensive assessments. Wide application is ensured by the methodology’s capacity to adapt to many building types, including residential and tertiary structures. The main result is a calculation procedure for grading assets that includes energy efficiency, non-energy factors, smart readiness, and environmental sustainability at a single building or building complex level.
The report’s goals are as follows:
- Create a new grading system based on evaluating individual buildings and other intricate factors for the building and neighbourhood sizes.
- The transition from the size of single buildings to the scale of a complex of buildings.
- Propose a certificate for the building assessment and the neighbourhood assessment.
