The aim of this research is to evaluate the performance of official natural gas allocation methods currently applied within natural gas network of three EU Member States, with a view to simulating energy consumption of urban building stocks. The models have been used to estimate natural gas consumption of an urban building stock with Non-Daily Metered (NDM) customers at two scales: city and neighbourhood. To this end, these methods have been applied to a distribution network in Southern Italy with about 16000 NDM customers and 4000 buildings. The present research gives useful information about the accuracy of natural gas billing for NDM customers.

Abstract
The aim of this research is to evaluate the performance of official natural gas allocation methods currently applied within natural gas network of three EU Member States, with a view to simulating energy consumption of urban building stocks. The models have been used to estimate natural gas consumption of an urban building stock with Non-Daily Metered (NDM) customers at two scales: city and neighbourhood. To this end, these methods have been applied to a distribution network in Southern Italy with about 16000 NDM customers and 4000 buildings. The present research gives useful information about the accuracy of natural gas billing for NDM customers.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
