Hello there,
I will be taking on a lease of a shop that will be operating as a takeaway/small restaurant in the UK.
I have been told that not only will the the Gas meter need to be uplifted from U6 to U16, but that the capacity of the incoming pipe into the shop also needs to increased. This unfortunately requires the services of the Utility companies (or national grid)
My requirements for my takeaway equipment is 156KW peak hourly gas load. With that in mind how would I calculate what my Estimated Annual Gas Load in KWh?
Is it as simple as calculating:
156KW * 12 * 360 = 673,920KWh? (where 12 is the estimated number of opening hours per day and 360 is the estimated number of days open per year)
Or is that an over estimation as the equipment will only hit 156KW peak power during certain time of the day?
Apologies in advance if this is an overly entry-level question as I am quite new to this. So any help/advice would appreciated.
Thanks.
