1. Option – separate chapters• Chapter 5: practical examples of use of the models with cross-

references to chapter 6 (theoretical/technical aspects). • Chapter 6: theoretical explanations of different techniques for

disaggregation.

• Option 1.a: Chapter 6 to be limited only to the techniques which are illustrated in the practical examples in Chapter 5.

• Option 1b.:in addition to option 1.a to have in Chapter 6 all the most known disaggregation techniques - some only in theory without link to practical application in Chapter 5.

2. Option – only 1 Chapter• Merge of Chapters 5 and 6.

• Merge of practice and theory in one chapter. In this case we do not need Chapter 6 as individual chapter.

2. Option – only 1 Chapter• The draft content of Chapter 5.3 Models applied to survey results:

– Heating degree days: Extrapolation and/or conversion to calendar years– Estimations of not reported quantities– Fuel break down by purpose in cases one fuel is used for more than one purpose– Calculation of fuel quantities if more than one fuel is used by purpose– Model based data validation taking into account household and residence size– Matching of results from different surveys– Modeling of energy consumption in second residences– Modeling of renewable heat consumption from solar thermal and heat pumps– Useful heat calculation

• Upgrade of practical examples with theoretical explanations.

• If option 1 – opt 1.a or 1.b?
