“…Fig. 1 demonstrates the percentage of total consumption that is residential in different regions of the world, which fluctuates from an average of 20% in the developed countries to more than 35% in the developing countries [10]. Residential energy demand is prominent both for its present size and potential growth [11].…”

Abstract-This paper is about commercial buildings energy consumption survey (CBECS) benchmarking database consept, its applications and related applications in Turkey. CBECS is useful for energy efficiency in new commercial building constructions, which is a key target to control and lower U.S. nation-wide energy use.Determining energy consumption of buildings is a key target for energy efficiency. Building energy efficiency is crucial especially for economical and climate change concerns. Improving energy efficiency in commercial buildings is useful in order to decrease energy use, owner operating costs, and carbon footprint of the buildings.The aims are to estimate life-cycle energy savings, cost performance of energy efficiency and carbon emission reduction in new commercial buildings utilizing an integrated design, and estimate results. Obtaining energy consumption of buildings can be utilized to decrease energy usage in new commercial buildings by 20-30% on average and up to over 40%. Thus, improved efficiencies permit smaller, cheaper HVAC equipment usage.

En pro de la mejora del desempeño energético de los edificios, surge la necesidad de evaluar económicamente las inversiones de eficiencia energética asociadas a la rehabilitación de viviendas. Este punto de vista trata de ser una herramienta útil para analistas que se inicien en la evaluación económica de inversiones en eficiencia energética. La presente investigación muestra un marco conceptual de la evaluación económica de este tipo de inversiones en viviendas. Como resultado, es posible identificar dos enfoques presentes en los análisis económicos de esta naturaleza: el dinámico y el estático. Ambos métodos contrastan los beneficios (ahorros energéticos) con los costes de las inversiones en el tiempo. Sin embargo, diferencian la oportunidad y el momento en que la inversión debe realizarse dado un escenario de incertidumbre. Esta precisión conceptual permite estudiar varias publicaciones donde se evaluaron diferentes alternativas de reacondicionamiento en viviendas, confirmándose las consideraciones que deben tenerse presentes en momento de realizar la modelación económica: el tipo de enfoque a usar (dinámico o estático) y, en la definición de las alternativas de inversión y escenarios, los aspectos de tiempo, irrevocabilidad e incertidumbre. Eficiencia energética de la vivienda; Inversiones en eficiencia energética; Reacondicionamiento energético; Evaluación económicaEvaluación económica de inversiones de eficiencia energética en viviendas  The literature in appraisal of dwelling energy efficient investments is investigated, founding two approaches and examples. Five cases from publications are tackled finding that the static approach is more frequent than the dynamic approach. Literature shows that dynamic approach should be preferred, but its use is scarce.
