The common practice in building performance modeling is to use ‘Typical Year’ weather data. Such data is statistically selected from the long-term record based on representative statistics for solar radiation and dry bulb temperature. However, although the use of a single typical year is convenient, it often leads to severe inaccuracies in the estimation of building loads and energy consumption. It is time to rethink alternatives to the use of Typical Year files. This seminar provides a deeper understanding of the problems linked to the use of Typical Years and walks the audience through several alternatives.
