Abstract: The paper describes an approach taken in the outPHit project to evaluate the performance of highly energy efficient buildings in the field. Efforts are made to streamline and automate most steps in order to make the process of building performance evaluation, with sound consideration of measuring uncertainty, accessible to a wider audience. A low-cost data acquisition system based on LoRa radio communication is outlined and tolerable measuring uncertainty of sensors discussed. Data collection, preprocessing and final evaluation are implemented within an on-line database. Measured data is used to update a detailed monthly energy balance calculation with actual boundary conditions and thus provide a yardstick to understand the metered energy consumption. Elementary comfort parameters are also part of the evaluation.
