Abstract:
One of the research areas of the Energy research
Centre of the Netherlands (ECN) concerns the built environment. Several
facilities to conduct the research activities are at ECN?s disposal.
One of these facilities, are five research dwellings located on the
terrain of ECN. Measured data from these facilities together with weather
data and computer models are used to evaluate innovative energy concepts
and components in energy systems on their performance. The facilities
are used for a broad range of research activities as well as product
development. This
paper explains more about the test facilities and the methods that are
used to evaluate performance.
