Introduction
This document informs about EN 15316-4-1 as a part of a series of standards aimed at European
harmonization of the methodology for the calculation of the energy performance of buildings.
A huge amount of informative contents needs indeed to be recorded and made available for users to
properly understand, apply and nationally adapt the EPB standards.
The set of EPB standards, Technical Reports and supporting tools
In order to facilitate the necessary overall consistency and coherence, in terminology, approach,
input/output relations and formats, for the whole set of EPB-standards, the following documents and
tools are available:
a) a document with basic principles to be followed in drafting EPB-standards: CEN/TS 16628:2014,
Energy Performance of Buildings - Basic Principles for the set of EPB standards [1];
b) a document with detailed technical rules to be followed in drafting EPB-standards;
CEN/TS 16629:2014, Energy Performance of Buildings - Detailed Technical Rules for the set of
EPB-standards [2];
c) the detailed technical rules are the basis for the following tools:
1) a common template for each EPB-standard, including specific drafting instructions for the
relevant clauses;
2) a common template for each technical report that accompanies an EPB standard or a cluster of
EPB standards, including specific drafting instructions for the relevant clauses;
3) a common template for the spreadsheet that accompanies each EPB standard, to demonstrate
the correctness of the EPB calculation procedures.
Each EPB-standards follows the basic principles and the detailed technical rules and relates to the
overarching EPB-standard, EN ISO 52000-1 [3].
One of the main purposes of the revision of the EPB-standards is to enable that laws and regulations
directly refer to the EPB-standards and make compliance with them compulsory. This requires that the
set of EPB-standards consists of a systematic, clear, comprehensive and unambiguous set of energy
performance procedures. The number of options provided is kept as low as possible, taking into
account national and regional differences in climate, culture and building tradition, policy and legal
frameworks (subsidiarity principle). For each option, an informative default option is provided
(Annex B).
Rationale behind the EPB Technical Reports
There is a risk that the purpose and limitations of the EPB standards will be misunderstood, unless the
background and context to their contents – and the thinking behind them – is explained in some detail
to readers of the standards. Consequently, various types of informative contents are recorded and made
available for users to properly understand, apply and nationally or regionally implement the EPB
standards.
If this explanation would have been attempted in the standards themselves, the result is likely to be
confusing and cumbersome, especially if the standards are implemented or referenced in national or
regional building codes.

SIST-TP CEN/TR 15316-6-4:2018
CEN/TR 15316-6-4:2017 (E)
Therefore, each EPB standard is accompanied by an informative technical report, like this one, where all
informative content is collected, to ensure a clear separation between normative and informative
contents (see CEN/TS 16629 [2]):
— to avoid flooding and confusing the actual normative part with informative content;
— to reduce the page count of the actual standard; and
— to facilitate understanding of the set of EPB standards.
This was also one of the main recommendations from the European CENSE project [5] that laid the
foundation for the preparation of the set of EPB standards.
EN 15316-4-1 is intended to replace EN 15316-4-1:2008 and includes Domestic hot water systems,
generation (former EN 15316-3-3) and biomass boilers (former EN 15316-4-7:2008) in this standard
published in 2007-2008 under the mandate M/343 on the EPBD. This revision was required as a result
of the EPBD recast (2010/31/EU).The set of standards developed under mandate M/343 will be revised
to become consistent with the overarching standard under mandate M/480.
The typology method has been removed, the boiler cycling method has been added for existing boilers
to get the input parameters for the case specific boiler efficiency method.
Other generation systems are covered in other sub modules of part M3-8 (see Figure 1).

CEN/TR 15316-6-4:2017 (E)
4.2 General description of the method
The calculation method of the generation sub-system takes into account heat losses and/or recovery
due to the following physical factors:
— heat losses to the chimney (or flue gas exhaust) and the generator(s) during total time of generator
operation (running and stand-by);
— auxiliary energy.
The calculation is independent from the time steps.
There are a basic calculation for
— boilers at all (EN 15316-4-1:2017, Clause 6.);
— direct heated domestic hot water heaters (EN 15316-4-1:2017, 6.11) and
— domestic hot water appliance tested with 24 h tapping cycles (EN 15316-4-1:2017, 6.12).
There are three possible inputs for the generation efficiency calculation:
— default values (EN 15316-4-1:2017, 5.5);
— product values (EN 15316-4-1:2017, 5.6);
— measured values (EN 15316-4-1:2017, 5.7).
Default values are given in Annex B.
Product values by the manufactures should be tested according to the appropriated European Standard
(see Bibliography).
Measured values are for existing boilers, condensing boilers and on-site inspection (see 5.6).
Here it is to be taken into account that the heating data are to be related to the gross calorific value.

Introduction
This document informs about FprEN 15316-4-1 as a part of a series of standards aimed at European
harmonization of the methodology for the calculation of the energy performance of buildings.
A huge amount of informative contents needs indeed to be recorded and made available for users to
properly understand, apply and nationally adapt the EPB standards
The set of EPB standards, technical reports and supporting tools
In order to facilitate the necessary overall consistency and coherence, in terminology, approach,
input/output relations and formats, for the whole set of EPB-standards, the following documents and
tools are available:
a) a document with basic principles to be followed in drafting EPB-standards: CEN/TS 16628:2014,
Energy Performance of Buildings - Basic Principles for the set of EPB standards [1];
b) a document with detailed technical rules to be followed in drafting EPB-standards;
CEN/TS 16629:2014, Energy Performance of Buildings - Detailed Technical Rules for the set of
EPB-standards [2];
c) the detailed technical rules are the basis for the following tools:
1) a common template for each EPB-standard, including specific drafting instructions for the
relevant clauses;
2) a common template for each technical report that accompanies an EPB standard or a cluster of
EPB standards, including specific drafting instructions for the relevant clauses;
3) a common template for the spreadsheet that accompanies each EPB standard, to demonstrate
the correctness of the EPB calculation procedures.
Each EPB-standards follows the basic principles and the detailed technical rules and relates to the
overarching EPB-standard, prEN ISO 52000-1 [3].
One of the main purposes of the revision of the EPB-standards is to enable that laws and regulations
directly refer to the EPB-standards and make compliance with them compulsory. This requires that the
set of EPB-standards consists of a systematic, clear, comprehensive and unambiguous set of energy
performance procedures. The number of options provided is kept as low as possible, taking into
account national and regional differences in climate, culture and building tradition, policy and legal
frameworks (subsidiarity principle). For each option, an informative default option is provided
(Annex B).
Rationale behind the EPB technical reports
There is a risk that the purpose and limitations of the EPB standards will be misunderstood, unless the
background and context to their contents – and the thinking behind them – is explained in some detail
to readers of the standards. Consequently, various types of informative contents are recorded and made
available for users to properly understand, apply and nationally or regionally implement the EPB
standards.
If this explanation would have been attempted in the standards themselves, the result is likely to be
confusing and cumbersome, especially if the standards are implemented or referenced in national or
regional building codes.

kSIST-TP FprCEN/TR 15316-6-4:2016
FprCEN/TR 15316-6-4:2016 (E)
Therefore, each EPB standard is accompanied by an informative technical report, like this one, where all
informative content is collected, to ensure a clear separation between normative and informative
contents (see CEN/TS 16629 [2]):
— to avoid flooding and confusing the actual normative part with informative content;
— to reduce the page count of the actual standard; and
— to facilitate understanding of the set of EPB standards.
This was also one of the main recommendations from the European CENSE project [5] that laid the
foundation for the preparation of the set of EPB standards.
FprEN 15316-4-1 is intended to replace EN 15316-4-1:2008 and includes Domestic hot water systems,
generation (former EN 15316-3-3) and biomass boilers (former EN 15316-4-7:2008) in this standard
published in 2007-2008 under the mandate M/343 on the EPBD. This revision was required as a result
of the EPBD recast (2010/31/EU).The set of standards developed under mandate M/343 will be revised
to become consistent with the overarching standard under mandate M/480.
The typology method has been removed, the boiler cycling method has been added for existing boilers
to get the input parameters for the case specific boiler efficiency method.
Other generation systems are covered in other sub modules of part M3-8 (see Figure 1).

4.2 General description of the method
The calculation method of the generation sub-system takes into account heat losses and/or recovery
due to the following physical factors:
— heat losses to the chimney (or flue gas exhaust) and the generator(s) during total time of generator
operation (running and stand-by);
— auxiliary energy.
The calculation is independent from the time steps.
There are a basic calculation for
— boilers at all (FprEN 15316-6-4:2016, Clause 6.);
— direct heated domestic hot water heaters (FprEN 15316-6-4:2016, 6.11) and
— domestic hot water appliance tested with 24 h tapping cycles (FprEN 15316-6-4:2016, 6.12).
There are three possible inputs for the generation efficiency calculation:
— default values (FprEN 15316-6-4:2016, 5.5);
— product values (FprEN 15316-6-4:2016, 5.6);
— measured values (FprEN 15316-6-4:2016, 5.7).
Default values are given in Annex B.
Product values by the manufactures should be tested according to the appropriated EN standard (see
bibliography).
Measured values are for existing boilers, condensing boilers and on-site inspection (see 5.6).
Here it is to be taken into account that the heating data are to be related to the gross calorific value.
