Energy model requirements

[ovbm]

Required models for release of app:

Electricity

• / kWh
• / dwelling (average kWh per m3 area per person per day): https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1UNxxHmLk0RW4d7HvwEgtIFDiobbvWPTuSpVAZRd4f6s/edit#gid=977491364
• / $ spent (electricity bill): https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1UNxxHmLk0RW4d7HvwEgtIFDiobbvWPTuSpVAZRd4f6s/edit#gid=2074930217

Heating: combination of https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1UNxxHmLk0RW4d7HvwEgtIFDiobbvWPTuSpVAZRd4f6s/edit#gid=680497538, https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1UNxxHmLk0RW4d7HvwEgtIFDiobbvWPTuSpVAZRd4f6s/edit#gid=2134621642 and https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1UNxxHmLk0RW4d7HvwEgtIFDiobbvWPTuSpVAZRd4f6s/edit#gid=837183524

• / living area and heating type (electric, district, oil, biomass etc... the most common types)
• / kWh and heating type

Gas

• / m3
• / kWh
• / $ (gas bill) : https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1UNxxHmLk0RW4d7HvwEgtIFDiobbvWPTuSpVAZRd4f6s/edit#gid=115488398

@martincollignon do you think this is doable by end of next week?

[corradio]

Maybe I can help here Martin (just ping me)

@ovbm how important is non-EU data?

Some data to explore further for me:

• http://www.entranze.enerdata.eu/
• https://www.indicators.odyssee-mure.eu/energy-efficiency-database.html
• https://www.odyssee-mure.eu/publications/efficiency-by-sector/households/electricity-consumption-dwelling.html
• https://www.globalpetrolprices.com/electricity_prices/

Heating:

• https://www.globalpetrolprices.com/heating_oil_prices/
• https://www.odyssee-mure.eu/publications/efficiency-by-sector/households/heating-consumption-per-m2.html
• https://ec.europa.eu/energy/sites/ener/files/documents/mapping-hc-final_report-wp3-wp4.pdf

Natural gas:

• https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/statistics-explained/index.php/Natural_gas_price_statistics

@corradio I found this data which could be cool to use, but I'll need your help!

Cooling and heating degree days by country in Europe

[martincollignon]

@ovbm for heating: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1UNxxHmLk0RW4d7HvwEgtIFDiobbvWPTuSpVAZRd4f6s/edit#gid=680497538

@FelixDQ FYI!

[FelixDQ]

Fields that we need to add to our schema:

• countryCode
• heatingSource

I suggest that we create two new .yml files for energy.
energyusage.yml:

_children:
  DK:
    heating:
        kwh:
          year:
            m2: # kwh/year/m2
              amount: 137.234
              source: https://www.odyssee-mure.eu/publications/efficiency-by-sector/households/heating-consumption-per-m2.html
    electricity: # non heating
      kwh:
        year: # kwh/year
          amount: 2791.2
          source: https://www.eea.europa.eu/data-and-maps/indicators/progress-on-energy-efficiency-in-europe-3/assessment

footprints.yml:

_children:
  Heating:
    _children:
      Coal boiler:
        kwh:
          intensityKilograms: 0.630 # kg co2e/kwh
          source: https://www.icax.co.uk/Decarbonising_Heating_2022.html
      District heating:
        country:
          DK:
            kwh:
              intensityKilograms: 0.20398 # kg co2e/kwh
              source: https://www.icax.co.uk/Decarbonising_Heating_2022.html

I think we already should have countryCodeISO2 in the schema (required by the hotel models? @martincollignon knows)
What if we already know the energy used? Should we enter it like a smart meter as energyWattHours?

[corradio]

@martincollignon what needs to happen to finish this? It seems that we need to prepare a PR with:

1. add all HEATING_SOURCE_ constants in definitions.js
2. add energyusage.yml and update footprints.yml
3. add a new carbon model

Is that right @martincollignon ? Can you maybe start doing 1. and 2.?

[martincollignon]

On it.

[corradio]

I'm going to create smaller issues for the work to be done so we can work on this iteratively.
I'll summarise all issues in this comment.

• Carbon footprint of heating based on kWh consumption, and by country when possible (this issue) <-- can be implemented

New issues:

• Move electricity model to contrib Move carbon model of electricity to contrib #315 <-- can be implemented
• Ability to estimate electricity usage (NOT HEATING!) from a bill Ability to estimate electricity usage footprint from a monetary amount #314 <-- can be implemented
• Ability to estimate heating usage from living area Ability to estimate heating usage from living area #316 <-- lacks data

[ovbm]

Let's postpone estimating heating use from living area to a later PR. We need to merge heating asap.

[corradio]

OK I'll have the basic pr ready today
