REGULATORY REFERENCES

Referencia normativa: Belgium

Regulatory framework of Belgium · Directive (EU) 2024/3019: reported-capacity band 1,000 to 9,999 p.e.; obligations are set by agglomeration load, not by the capacity of this plant. Individual applicability is not determined in this profile.

SCENARIO

Reference energy scenario for this load estimate · simulator engine

104,120reference kWh per year for this load
56.4kWh per h-e (average load) per year
15,618€ per year at 0.15 €/kWh
61 %share of energy used for aeration

what this estimate is · Inputs: 1,848 p.e. of reported load; equivalent average load 1,845 p.e. with the reference profile of Belgium (hypothesis with reported load and reference profile; not a measurement). Open this scenario in the simulator · how it is calculated and what it is not.

Reference scenario computed on the server from the reported load and the country profile; an estimate, not a measurement. The simulator recomputes it when opened.
