英国政府公布了一项雄心勃勃的改造计划，旨在显著提高住房的能源效率。关于建筑能效及其相关能源需求的高质量数据对于支持和确定能效投资目标至关重要。在过去15年中，英国政府利用现有的家庭改善方案，将大约1300万户家庭的能源效率改造数据连同2004-2007年期间的年度计量燃气和电力使用情况汇集到家庭能源效率数据库中。本文描述了HEED样本，并使用关联的燃气和电表数据评估其在住宅特征方面的代表性，不同能源性能水平的能源需求，以及对改造措施对能源需求的影响的分析。节能显示与阁楼和空腔隔热装置、玻璃和锅炉更换有关。分析表明，这种“实际”数据来源可用于提供能效改造对能源需求影响的实证估计，并为支持国家住房能效改造政策的制定提供了实证数据来源。(C) 2013年作者。Elsevier Ltd.出版。版权所有。
The UK Government has unveiled an ambitious retrofit programme that seeks significant improvement to the energy efficiency of the housing stock. High quality data on the energy efficiency of buildings and their related energy demand is critical to supporting and targeting investment in energy efficiency. Using existing home improvement programmes over the past 15 years, the UK Government has brought together data on energy efficiency retrofits in approximately 13 million homes into the Homes Energy Efficiency Database (HEED), along with annual metered gas and electricity use for the period of 2004-2007.This paper describes the HEED sample and assesses its representativeness in terms of dwelling characteristics, the energy demand of different energy performance levels using linked gas and electricity meter data, along with an analysis of the impact retrofit measures has on energy demand. Energy savings are shown to be associated with the installation of loft and cavity insulation, and glazing and boiler replacement. The analysis illustrates this source of 'in-action' data can be used to provide empirical estimates of impacts of energy efficiency retrofit on energy demand and provides a source of empirical data from which to support the development of national housing energy efficiency retrofit policies.
