+<font 14px/inherit;;inherit;;inherit>The total building area for every NUTS2 is calculated.</font>
+<font 14px/inherit;;inherit;;inherit>**(2) Calculate the fuelwood consumption per square meter in the NUTS2 regions**</font>
+<font 14px/inherit;;inherit;;inherit>The fuelwood consumption at the NUTS2 level is divided by the building area per NUTS2, which gives the fuelwood consumption per square meter in each NUTS2 region.</font>
+<font 14px/inherit;;inherit;;inherit>**(3) Calculate fuelwood consumption at the LAU2 level**</font>
+<font 14px/inherit;;inherit;;inherit>To obtain the fuelwood consumption per municipality the result of the previous step is multiplied with the building area of each LAU2 polygon. This result is then related to the average heating degree days at the LAU2 and NUTS2 level.</font>
+**<font 14px/inherit;;inherit;;inherit>(4) Calculate temperature correction factor</font>**
+<font 14px/inherit;;inherit;;inherit>The disaggregation of the previous step is refined by considering a temperature correction factor for every LAU2. This factor is calculated by first calculating a raster layer with the heating degree days for the Alpine area. From this raster layer, the maximum value for every LAU2 is extracted (Because this value most likely corresponds to the situation in the valley bottoms where the buildings are usually located, the mean function would also include all the values in the mountains where no buildings are) and then these maxima for all LAU2s within a NUTS2 region are averaged. For every LAU2 this value on NUTS2 level is divided with the maximum value within the LAU2, extracted previously. This factor is then multiplied with the results of steps 3 for every LAU2.</font>
+<font 14px/inherit;;inherit;;inherit>In the LAU2s which have a cooler climate the demand is increased. On the other hand, LAUs with a higher maximum of the yearly average temperature will have a smaller temperature correction factor and therefore also a reduced demand.</font>
