German term or phrase: Festschlüssel
Wärme- und Warmwasserzähler müssen die Vorschriften der Verordnung des EJPD über Messmittel für thermische Energie (SR 941.231) einhalten.
In allen Räumen müssen automatische, individuell einstellbare Regelorgane zur Verfügung stehen.
Ist die Messung von einzelnen Teilflächen innerhalb eines zentral versorgten Gebäudes nicht möglich oder unverhältnismässig, so sind diese Teile nach 100 Prozent Festschlüssel (in der Regel Fläche oder Raumvolumen) abzurechnen.

I'm not sure what "100 Prozent" adds to the meaning, if anything.

set formula / fixed formula


Explanation:
Formula for calculating invoice.

Heat and hot water meters must comply with the provisions of the Ordinance of the FDJP on Measuring Instruments for Thermal Energy (SR 941.231).
Automatic, individually adjustable regulation equipment must be available in all rooms.
If the measurement of individual partial areas within a centrally supplied building is not possible or disproportionate, these parts must be billed according to 100 percent set formula (usually area or room volume).

allocation formula/base


Explanation:
Es handelt sich um einen festen Verteilungsschlüssel

Nach § 16 WEG ist der Verteilungsschlüssel grundsätzlich der Miteigentumsanteil. Ausgenommen hiervon sind jedoch die Heiz- und Warmwasserkosten, diese müssen nach der Heizkostenverordnung abgerechnet werden.

Verteilungsschlüssel (KoR) / allocation base/formula
(Schäfer, Wirtschaftswörterbuch)

• For example, if power costs were to be allocated, kilowatt hours would be the cost driver or causal factor that could be used as the allocation base.
http://accounts.smccd.edu/nurre/online/chtr14mowen.htm

An allocation base is the basis upon which an entity allocates its overhead costs. An allocation base takes the form of a quantity, such as machine hours used, kilowatt hours consumed, or square footage occupied.
https://www.accountingtools.com/articles/what-is-an-allocati...

The allocation base used to allocate heat consumption in the buildings with HCA installed is:
[formula]
where: ESUC—heat energy allocated to an individual unit [kWh];
EG—total delivered heat energy in the calculation period for space heating (without sanitary hot water preparation) measured on a common building heat energy meter without the heat energy allocated to units without HCAs installed [kWh];
PGSUC—the surface of all independent use units that had the heat energy consumption in the calculating period [m²];
https://www.mdpi.com/1996-1073/12/4/586/htm

They demanded that the old cost allocation method based on apartment area be retained. This resulted in the national law being amended so that the area of such apartments without HCAs must be deducted from the total area of the building and in the cost allocation formula such apartments are entered with the surface area multiplied by 2

The maximum price caps the service charges for the supply of heat, which for commercial lease agreements are usually calculated based on the allocation formula of the General Provisions of the Dutch Real Estate Board.
