An accurate and fast building load prediction model is critically important for guiding energy system design, optimizing operational parameters, balancing a power grid between supply demand. A physics-based simulation tool traditionally used to provide the demand; however, it constrained by its complex development process requirement engineering judgments. Machine learning algorithms (i.e., data-driven models) based on big data can bridge this gap. In study, we massive generated (EnergyPlus)...
In the practice of building energy performance evaluation, two types rating systems are widely used in evaluation: empirical baseline use intensity (EUI) for existing buildings and modeled EUI new buildings. Consequently, EUIs by those inconsistent. One example is ASHRAE's Building EQ Operation As Designed. To support EQ, ASHRAE RP-1771 project attempts to 1) make baselines both Designed consistent, 2) reconcile Design with Standard 90.1 baselines. After reviewing data sources, we created...
The evaluation of building energy performance requires a baseline for comparison. Common empirical baselines are usually used existing buildings since they fast and convenient. However, the same type at location will receive despite their difference in usage. Individualized by creating models possible solutions, but it is labor intensive time-consuming. To fill gap, this study to develop individualized way. First, common created based on survey data. Then, get training samples, large-scale...
The commitment of electrification and decarbonization goals in the United States (U.S.) will significantly change performance future buildings. To meet these goals, it is critical to summarize existing research related building discuss pathways. This paper provides a perspective on pathways buildings U.S. A review was conducted, which divided into three closely linked categories: technologies, economic impacts, code regulations. Technologies support investments regulations while marketing...
