Degree Day means a unit of measure that is used to help describe the effect of weather severity on the amount of energy needed for heating or cooling a building. A degree day represents the difference between a given base temperature (usually 65° Fahrenheit) and the mean daily temperature (average of the daily maximum and minimum air temperatures). One heating (or cooling) degree day is accumulated for each whole degree that the daily mean temperature is below (or above) the base temperature. The more extreme the weather, the higher the number of degree days (either daily or annual totals).
Degree Day means the amount that the daily mean temperature deviates below 15 degrees Celsius at AUI, below 18 degrees Celsius at HGL, such that a one degree difference equates to one Degree Day;
