1)

Consists of electricity consumption in the portfolio’s communal spaces and total heat consumption in the portfolio (according to energy certificates, calculated for living and communal areas).

2)

Rentable areas were extrapolated to full building floor space using 20% premium for communal areas in accordance with ENEV 2014 Section 19 (2).

3)

These include: biomass, solar thermal, heat pumps.

4)

Limited comparability due to the adjustment of the calculation method for electricity consumption in communal areas in 2017 (extrapolation of average electricity consumption per rental unit) compared with later reporting periods (evaluation of meter readings for electricity consumption).

5)

Calculation based on the share of renewable energy in the German electricity mix according to BDEW, in the Swedish electricity mix according to the Swedish Energy Agency, in the Austrian electricity mix according to the E-Control 2019 electricity disclosure report (in each case location-based approach).
