Abstract
There are several benefits to district heating systems. The system design requires knowledge of community peak heating load and annual heating energy requirements. For this purpose, a residential energy model was developed using several energy usage databases. Hourly, peak, and annual heating demands were estimated by simulating 15 archetype houses using an hour-by-hour building simulation program, ENERPASS. Estimated heating profiles from model houses were used to design a district heating system for a hypothetical rural community in Nova Scotia. The findings show that building simulation is a very flexible and valuable tool in identifying the required peak and hourly energy demand of a community for the design of district energy system, and biomass district heating system can reduce community greenhouse gas emissions.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
