This building performs more efficiently than a typical baseline or worst-case scenario, due to the increasingly aggressive building codes being adopted in Minnesota. As modeled the building achieves a HERS index of 60. Jun Jul Aug Sept Oct Nov Dec Hea ng Cooling DHW Ligh ng Equipment Fans/ Pumps The charts above shows energy use in the building by end use. The heating energy (red) is the majority of the load. Heating conservation strategies for this envelope dominated building type should focus on increased insulation, air sealing, and a more efficient mechanical system PROJECT INFORMATION Townhome Prototype 4 Units, 2BR each 12 Residents 16.6 DHW gpd/person@120f 15.9 cfm/person, continuous ventilation Area Floor: 5,124 ft2 Roof: 2,562 ft2 Exterior Wall: 4,957 ft2 Opening: 638 ft2 WWR: 12.9 Surface Area / Volume Ratio: 0.18 Location and Climate Minneapolis, Minnesota Climate Zone 6 HDD: 8217 CDD: 831 SPECIFICATIONS Baseline Equipment Gas Furnace, 95.0 AFUE Electric AC, 14.0 SEER Natural Gas Hot Water Heater, 0.67 EF, 40.0 Gal Storage Lighting Power Density: 0.6 w/ft2 Equipment Power Density: 0.25 w/ft kbtu/ 2/yr 15000kWh 11250kWh 7500kWh 3750kWh 0kWh Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec Baseline Envelope Roof: R-50 Wall: R-16 Glazing: Whole Window U-0.32, SHGC 0.26 Slab: R-10 Infiltration: 3.0 ACH50 kwh Generated kwh Demand The chart above shows the annual energy production potential for the townhomes for a roof top photovoltaic array (left), and a comparison of monthly production and demand (right). The blue area on the pie chart shows the annual production relative to total load, which shows that 31% of the annual energy load can be met on site.

Actual experience will differ from these calculations due to variations such as occupancy, building operation and maintenance, weather, energy use not covered by this procedure, changes in energy rates between design of the building and occupancy, and the precision of the calculation tool. Modeled using IES Virtual Environment Energy production assumes a ptiched roof with 50% of the tool roof area dedicated to PV panels.
