There are three billing procedures for the gas division:

  • In volumetric gas billing,
  • the meter reading difference is assigned a conversion factor of 1.
  • In gas billing according to standard cubic meters the prorated meter reading differences are multiplied by the volume correction factor as conversion factor.
  • Thermal gas billing

    Procedure for thermal gas billing:

    For each register relevant to billing, one or more volume correction factors and one or more calorific values are determined for the billing period.

    Enter the calculation procedure for the volume correction factor and for the calorific value per register in the installation structure.

    The system then determines the values before the proration.

    The prorated meter reading differences are multiplied by the following conversion factors:

    • the calorific value and the volume correction factor (VCF)
    • the product of the calorific value and VCF
    • F = Sum (Di) / Sum (Di/Fi)
    • Fi = Ci * Vi
      Di: Degree day coefficient; Ci: Calorific value; Vi: volume correction factor; Fi: conversion factor

      Determination of heat quantity:

      Thermal gas billing is performed on the basis of the heat quantity in kilowatt-hours (kWh).

      The heat quantity supplied to customers is calculated using the following formula:
      Heat quantity = measured operating cubic meters *
      (in kWh) volume correction factor of the gas *
      average calorific value of the gas

      First, the measured operating cubic meters are converted into standardcubic meters using the gas volume correction factor. The gas volumecorrection factor accounts for influencing factors such as temperature,measured pressure of the gas, air pressure and gas type.

      Next, the standard cubic meters are multiplied by the average calorific value of the gas to obtain the heat quantity in kWh.

      The calorific value is dependent on the composition of the gas and itspecifies which heat quantity is contained in one standard cubic meterof the gas. The calorific value is determined with gas calorimeters.

Example

Requirements

Depending on the billing procedure, you must have completed the following actions.

  • You must have created a volume correction factor procedure.
  • You must have created a calorific value procedure.

Standard settings

Recommendation

You should define at least one of the procedures mentioned above.

Activities

  1. Determine which standard settings you are able to use.
  2. Change or supplement the standard settings as required.
  3. If you accept the standard gas procedures with the corresponding volume correction factor procedures and calorific valueprocedures, you must check the specified procedures for volume correction factor and calorific value in the activitiesDefine Volume Correction Factor Procedure and Define Calorific Value Procedures.
  4. To define a new gas procedure, proceed as follows:

  • Specify a mnemonic key in the Gas procedure field.
  • Specify the type of gas billing you use in the Gas billing type field.

Further notes

The gas procedure is stored in the installation structure in the register.
