ABSTRACT
The greatest potential for energy savings can be achieved in the residential sector, where nearly 40% of final energy consumption is spent in all the types of buildings. That’s why the energy saving is the key goal of this age, because big part of the produced energy is spent just in dwellings, in which we live and work. Main part of spent energy in dwellings represents the space heating. So it is important to know how much energy is needed for the dwelling operation and what the opportunities to decrease the total energy are.
