REGULATORY REFERENCES

Referencia normativa: Germany

Regulatory framework of Germany · Directive (EU) 2024/3019: reported-capacity band 10,000 to 149,999 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

1,938,645reference kWh per year for this load
39.4kWh per h-e (average load) per year
290,797€ per year at 0.15 €/kWh
54 %share of energy used for aeration

what this estimate is · Inputs: 49,118 p.e. of reported load; equivalent average load 49,155 p.e. with the reference profile of Germany (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.
