Dawson E/9 Northern Sustainable House energy performance assessment . : NH18-22/115-2E-PDF

While the E/9 NSH did not achieve a 90% reduction in energy consumption relative to its 1997 MNECH baseline, the energy efficiency measures implemented contributed to a significant reduction in space heating consumption as compared to the 1997 Model National Energy Code for Houses (MNECH) baseline and the neighbouring conventional units. As electrical loads are greatly affected by occupant behaviour, they are far less predictable at the design stage and, as shown by the results of this study, can have a significant impact on the actual household energy use. Although the E/9 NSH did not meet its initial design goal, it raised the bar in terms of efficient housing in the North and there were many valuable lessons not only for the housing providers but also the maintainers, and the construction industry learned from its design, construction and monitoring phases.
