In kW-Labs/nmecr: An implementation of peer-reviewed energy data analysis algorithms for site-specific M&V

Calculate normalized savings and associated uncertainty as per ASHRAE Guideline 2014

Description

This function calculates normalized (hourly or daily) savings achieved and the associated uncertainty.

Usage

calculate_norm_savings_and_uncertainty(
  baseline_model = NULL,
  baseline_stats = NULL,
  performance_model = NULL,
  performance_stats = NULL,
  normalized_weather = NULL,
  confidence_level = 90
)

Arguments

baseline_model	Baseline model
baseline_stats	Baseline model's corresponding statistics
performance_model	Performance model
performance_stats	Performance model's corresponding statistics
normalized_weather	Weather dataset to be used for model prediction normalization
confidence_level	Numeric corresponding to the confidence level to be used for savings uncertainty calculation

Value

a list with the following components:

normalized_savings

a dataframe with normalized baseline and performance predictions, and savings.

normalized_savings_frac

a numeric indicating the fraction of normalized savings against normalized baseline

normalized_savings_unc

a numeric indicating normalized savings uncertainty in energy units

normalized_savings_unc_pct

a numeric indicating normalized savings uncertainty in percent units

confidence_leve

a numeric indicating the confidence level at which the computation was performed.
