本文提出了一种估算气候变化对既有住宅采暖能源利用潜在影响的方法。所提出的方法是基于从历史能源使用数据开发的房屋能源签名。该方法可以通过使用来自所有者的公用事业账单应用于任何单独的房屋，或者可以由公用事业公司使用，公用事业公司具有大量房屋的记录的能量使用的数据库。第二种情况可以导致对一个城市、一个省或一个国家内气候变化潜在影响的准确估计。在蒙特利尔（加拿大）的一所房子的案例研究，并与不同的采样率的数据所获得的结果进行了讨论。该方法也适用于一个样本的11个现有的房屋，结果表明，由于气候变化的影响，在当前时期（1961-1990年）和未来时期（2040-2069年）之间，供暖能源的使用减少了7.9%和16.9%。
This paper presents a method for the estimation of potential impact of climate change on the heating energy use of existing houses. The proposed method is based on the house energy signature that is developed from historical energy use data. The method can be applied to any individual house, by using the utility bills from the owner, or can be used by utility companies, which have databases of recorded energy use for large number of houses. The second case can lead to accurate estimates of potential impact of climate change within a city, a province or a country. A case study of a house in Montreal (Canada) is presented, and the results obtained with different sampling rates of data are discussed. The method is also applied to a sample of 11 existing houses, and the results show the reduction of heating energy use between 7.9% and 16.9% due to climate change between the present period (1961–1990) and the future period (2040–2069).
