Abstract

Purpose: With the technological developments and the increase in population day by day, the need for energy has become more than before and this has led to the need to study energy. It is seen that energy consumption and energy use will increase day by day. In the face of this situation, it is important for researchers to work on climate and energy analysis. Within the scope of the study, the degree-day values to be used in calculating the amount of energy required to meet the heating and cooling needs for Erzurum province will be calculated.
Method: This study was carried out using degree-day methods which are among the building energy analysis methods. The results were obtained by using the heating degree-day and cooling degree-day methods separately within the degree-day methods.
Findings: The data obtained within the scope of the study were obtained from the General Directorate of State Meteorological Affairs and Erzurum province was analysed in terms of temperature, relative humidity, wind, rain, frost, sun and climate.
Results: As a result of the necessary analyses, it has been determined that the heating need of Erzurum province is felt on most days of the year and a large part of the energy consumption is used by heating systems. It has been determined that the cooling need is very low in Erzurum province and it has been determined as a result of the analyses that cooling systems can be operated in an insignificant part of the year.
