    An aside for fclauson - are you still using the old spreadsheet version of Deap? You know that the new program version is free to download, and a whole lot easier to use?

    The Excel version of DEAP on the SEAI site allows you to change the factors on the fuel tab. Its online here: http://www.seai.ie/deap

    DEAP works on a couple of base theories

    a) it works out your heat loss through the fabric
    b) how you will provide your energy (effects your CO2 production)
    c) your renewables contribution

    on (c) The renewables contribution in DEAP just works compliance against the 10kWh/m2 figure specified in TGD L. TGD L doesn't give any other definition of "reasonable contribution" so DEAP doesn't have anything else to compare against.
