EED Consumption Notification

Encourage residents to monitor their consumption and contribute to a greener future

Brunata EED Consumption Notification is a service that aligns with the EU’s initiatives to foster a greener future. This service assists property owners and administrators in reducing building energy consumption by raising residents’ awareness of their own energy use, thereby promoting greater sustainability.

The consumption notification service fully complies with the EU Energy Efficiency Directive (EED), which mandates that consumers have access to their consumption data and encourages them to monitor their consumption patterns. Our solution encompasses not only heat consumption but also all other types of residential meters that may be registered with Brunata.

The EED Consumption Notification service includes

1. Monthly updates: On the 15th of each month, residents receive an updated consumption notification. This notification provides a comprehensive overview of all relevant consumption data for the preceding month.

2. Comparison and analysis: The consumption overview additionally offers a comparison with previous periods, enabling residents to observe how their consumption evolves over time.

3. Access via app or web portal: Residents can conveniently access their consumption data through our user-friendly app or the Brunata Online web portal. This service offers the flexibility to monitor consumption at any time and from any location.

4. Online Archive: All consumption overviews are securely stored in the archive within our online portal, Brunata Online. Historical consumption overviews are readily accessible, allowing for comparison and progress tracking.

5. Email distribution: Consumption notifications are sent to all residents who have registered an email address in Brunata Online. The building owner or administrator will receive, via email, a list of residents who have not provided an email address. They can easily access the residents’ consumption summaries in Brunata Online, print them, and distribute them accordingly.

Questions and Answers about EED Consumption Notifications

Have you received a monthly EED Consumption Notification from Brunata and are unsure what it means? Here you will find answers to the most common questions about your consumption, your meters, and your consumption status.

Why do I receive an EED Consumption Notification?

You receive an EED Consumption Notification because remotely read meters are installed at your property.

The EU Energy Efficiency Directive (EED) requires that consumers with remotely read meters receive monthly information about their consumption during the heating season.

The notification is designed to give you insight into your heating and water consumption, allowing you to follow developments and adjust your habits.

Your consumption notification provides an overview of what your meters have registres. The notification includes all remotely read meters that are part of your consumption account, such as heating, water, electricity, and/or energy meters.

It shows:

  • How much your meters have registred during the past month
  • Comparisons with previous periods
  • The notification displays measurements and comparisons but does not explain the reasons for changes in your consumption.

No. The notification only shows measurements and comparisons. The final cost can only be calculated once the utility costs are known and the consumption account has been prepared.

In most cases, it means that one or more meters have been replaced during the accounting period.

It is included in your notification to ensure that all relevant measurements are included in the calculation of your consumption and in comparisons with previous periods. Your consumption is always recorded by the meter installed at the time of measurement.

This does not mean that an additional heat source has been added.

It is a requirement under the EU Energy Efficiency Directive (EED) that consumers with remotely read meters receive monthly information about their consumption during the heating season. The notification service is provided by Brunata on behalf of your administrator.

No. This service has been purchased by your administrator as part of complying with the EU Energy Efficiency Directive (EED).

Your consumption may vary from month to month. This can be due to factors such as the weather, changes in your consumption habits, or other circumstances at your property. Unfortunately, Brunata cannot determine the specific reason for changes in your consumption.
If you have questions about your consumption, please contact your administrator. The consumption notification only shows the measurements registred by your meters.

Units are allocation values used to measure heating consumption and distribute heating costs within a property. They do not represent a direct monetary value. Your final consumption account is prepared once a year, and the units recorded are used as part of the calculation of your share of the heating costs.

If your heating or water meter has been replaced, you may notice that the new meter records more units than the previous one. This is because different meter types can register consumption in different ways.
This does not necessarily mean that your actual consumption has increased or that the meter has been configured incorrectly. The consumption is simply being recorded using a different measurement method.
When your consumption account is prepared, the readings are converted and adjusted to ensure that your consumption is calculated correctly. Therefore, the number of units cannot be directly compared between different meters.

Not necessarily. The number of units does not directly determine how much you will pay.
If your meter has been replaced, the new meter may record consumption differently from the previous one. As a result, the number of units may appear higher, even though your actual consumption has not increased.

When your consumption account is prepared, the readings are converted and adjusted to ensure that your consumption is calculated correctly. Therefore, you will not receive a higher bill simply because the number of units displayed has increased.
If your meter has not been replaced, an increase in the number of units may be the result of higher consumption. However, the consumption notification only shows the measurements and does not explain the reason for the change.

You can track your consumption online through MyBrunata. MyBrunata is Brunata’s digital platform, where you can monitor your consumption both via a web browser and through the app.
