Energihuset has developed an energy calculator that enables you to understand energy consumption in commercial buildings, calculate energy performance ratings, and identify measures to reduce energy costs. In this article, we will review the key aspects of energy consumption and energy labeling for commercial buildings, and how our calculator can assist you.
Energy consumption in commercial buildings can vary significantly depending on the building's size, usage, and energy efficiency. Typically, a commercial building uses between 150-300 kWh per square meter annually, but this figure can be higher for older or less energy-efficient buildings. Energihuset's Energy Calculator allows you to obtain an assessment of your building's energy consumption based on specific factors such as size and usage.
Energy certification of commercial buildings is a process where the building's energy consumption is assessed and classified on a scale from A to G, with A being the most energy-efficient.
The process involves a thorough assessment of the building's heating, ventilation, cooling, and energy sources. Our calculator estimates the building's current energy performance rating and illustrates how much you could reduce your energy costs by upgrading the building to a better energy performance rating.
An Energy Audit is conducted in several steps.
First, our experts collect data on the building's energy consumption, technical installations, and operational procedures.
Subsequently, a physical and detailed inspection of the building is performed.
These data are then analyzed to identify patterns and deviations that may indicate inefficient energy consumption. This includes evaluating heating and cooling systems, lighting, ventilation, and the use of electrical appliances.

The cost of energy performance certification for commercial buildings depends on the building's size and complexity. Contact Energihuset for a no-obligation quote. This is an investment that can quickly pay for itself through reduced energy costs and increased market attractiveness.
The energy performance certification is measured based on the building's total energy consumption and energy sources. This includes everything from heating and ventilation to lighting and electrical equipment. Energihuset's Energy Calculator provides an estimate, but it is only an indication. To obtain an accurate rating and an approved energy certificate, Energihuset must conduct a physical inspection and perform dynamic calculations.
The energy performance certification for your building can be found on the Energy Performance Portal, where all certified buildings are registered. If you have previously obtained energy performance certification, it will be available here. If not, our calculator can help you get a preliminary assessment of the building's energy performance rating and guide you towards getting the building certified.
The energy performance rating is calculated based on the building's annual energy consumption relative to standardized usage. The calculator takes into account factors such as the building's size, usage, and geographical location.
To achieve an energy performance rating of A or B, the building must be highly energy-efficient. This is often achieved through a combination of energy-efficient heating, ventilation, and cooling, as well as the use of renewable energy sources. Our consultants can provide you with concrete proposals for measures that can improve the energy performance rating and help you assess how close you are to achieving these ratings. By ordering an energy certificate and energy mapping from Energihuset, you will receive a complete list of potential energy-saving measures and precisely what impact each measure has on the energy performance rating.
Energy performance certification is an essential tool for understanding and improving energy consumption in commercial buildings. Energihuset's Energy Calculator helps you gain insight into energy consumption and estimate the energy performance rating. Our consultants can then identify measures that can reduce costs and improve the energy efficiency of your commercial building. Whether you already have an energy performance certification or are considering obtaining one, our calculator can provide you with valuable insights and guidance.
