Khalim Conn-Kowlessar 829a3318dc Slice S0380.135: dispatch responsiveness via Table 4a SAP code (solid-fuel cluster)
SAP 10.2 spec line 15271:

  "R = responsiveness of main heating system (Table 4a or Table 4d)"

The cascade's `_responsiveness` was keyed solely on `heat_emitter_type`
(Table 4d), which is correct for systems whose responsiveness is
determined by the emitter (gas / oil / HP boilers feeding radiators or
UFH). But for systems with intrinsically low responsiveness — solid-
fuel room heaters, range cookers, independent solid-fuel boilers —
the spec lodges R directly in Table 4a against the heating-system SAP
code, and that value overrides any emitter-based lookup.

For solid fuel 8 (SAP code 160 = "Range cooker boiler (integral oven
and boiler)", lodged with radiators emitter), pre-slice the cascade
returned R = 1.0 (radiators) instead of the spec-correct R = 0.50
(Table 4a p.169). The Table 9b mean-internal-temperature adjustment
then over-estimated heating-system response, under-estimating space
heating demand by ~10% (cascade demand 6874.80 kWh vs worksheet EPC
implied 7566 kWh).

The fix adds a new dispatch `_RESPONSIVENESS_BY_SAP_CODE` consulted
first in `_responsiveness`; SAP codes not in the dict fall through to
the existing Table 4d emitter lookup.

Table 4a entries added (SAP 10.2 PDF p.169-170):

  151  Manual feed independent boiler                R=0.75
  153  Auto (gravity) feed independent boiler        R=0.75
  155  Wood chip/pellet independent boiler           R=0.75
  156  Open fire with back boiler to radiators       R=0.50
  158  Closed room heater with boiler to radiators   R=0.50
  159  Stove (pellet-fired) with boiler to radiators R=0.75
  160  Range cooker boiler (integral oven+boiler)    R=0.50
  161  Range cooker boiler (independent oven+boiler) R=0.50
  631  Open fire in grate                            R=0.50
  632  Open fire with back boiler (no radiators)     R=0.50
  633  Closed room heater                            R=0.50
  634  Closed room heater with boiler (no radiators) R=0.50
  635  Stove (pellet fired)                          R=0.75
  636  Stove (pellet fired) with boiler (no rads)    R=0.75

Heating-systems corpus impact — 10 solid-fuel variants re-pinned:

  variant         ΔSAP   was        Δcost  was      ΔPE     was
  solid fuel 2    +2.64  +4.79     -£60    -£110    -1211   -2292
  solid fuel 3    +1.32  +4.43     -£30    -£102     -935   -2496
  solid fuel 4    +1.59  +4.13     -£37     -£95     +151   -1097
  solid fuel 5    +1.70  +2.71     -£39     -£62     +160    -331
  solid fuel 6   -11.37  -7.38    +£268   +£168      +87   -1313  ← see below
  solid fuel 7    +2.04  +5.82     -£47    -£131      +44   -1638
  solid fuel 8    +1.81  +4.24     -£42     -£98      +88   -1308
  solid fuel 9    +1.71  +3.44     -£39     -£79     +155    -510
  solid fuel 10   +1.75  +5.14     -£40    -£118     +120   -1315
  solid fuel 11   +1.62  +4.35     -£37    -£100     +171    -962

7/10 PE residuals close to ±220 kWh (down from -331..-2496). 9/10 SAP
residuals tighten to +1.32..+2.64 (down from +2.71..+5.82).

solid fuel 6 (Dual Fuel Anthracite Wood, SAP 160) SAP residual
regresses -7.38 → -11.37 while PE closes +87. The dual-fuel cascade
has a separate bug now exposed by the more-accurate demand calc;
queued for a follow-up slice.

Non-solid-fuel variants (15) unchanged — their SAP codes aren't in
the new dispatch dict so they fall through to Table 4d as before.
Electric storage Table 4a rows (193-196, 422-424, 515, 701) and the
spec's other low-responsiveness codes can be added in follow-up
slices as electric corpus variants are unblocked.

Extended handover suite: 877 pass / 0 fail (+1 new responsiveness
AAA test). Pyright net-zero on touched files (43 → 43).

No golden fixture impact — no golden cert lodges a solid-fuel SAP
code via the cascade path.

Model Repository

This repository contains the code pertaining to the development of the data science and machine learning products being utilised by Hestia.

The different folders in this repository relate to services that can be used independently, or can be imported and used as part of a larger application

Getting Started

Prerequisites

Dev Container Setup

This repo uses a Docker Compose-based dev container. The model-backend service joins a shared-dev Docker network so it can communicate with other local services (e.g. a frontend container) running on your machine.

VS Code users: The initializeCommand in devcontainer.json creates the shared-dev network automatically before the container starts. No manual step required — just open the repo and select Reopen in Container.

Non-VS Code / CI workflows: Run the following once before starting the container:

make dev-setup

This is idempotent and safe to re-run if the network already exists.

Folders

backend/

This folder contains the code for the fastapi backend service, which provides an interface to much of the functionality in this repository, for the frontend

model_data/

This folder contains related to the reading and preparation of assessment model data, including pulling out epc attributes

Testing

All tests can be run, against the configuration in pytest.ini running

pytest

This will run the complete panel of tests and report on coverage in the locations specified by the pytest.ini file.

To run tests in a specific service, e.g. inside of model_data, simply run

pytest --cov-config=model_data/.coveragerc --cov=model_data

This will produce the test results and coverage reports
