Settlements of individual heating costs in multifamily buildings - Polish experience

Journal Title: Architecture Civil Engineering Environment - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 0

Abstract

European Directive on energy efficiency requires the settlement of energy consumers according to the actual consumption. The use of properly operating and socially acceptable settlement systems of individual heating costs contributes to energy savings in the residential sector. The paper presents the national legal requirements in this field and the possibility of using different settlement systems of heating costs. The main causes of irregularities in settlements of individual heating costs using heat cost allocators in housing sector in Poland are listed and described. There are presented proposals of existing irregularities elimination, in order to obtain adequate quality of the heating cost division in building into individual apartments.
