Literature reviews from different countries show that the difference between the calculated and measured energy use of the building, often known as “energy performance gap”, can be as high as 100-200%. Knowing the size of the building energy performance gap, if it exists, along with its underlying causes will enable professionals to make more informed assumptions and produce better predictions. As
