A simplified urban building energy model to support early-stage energy plans [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2022
The latest attempts in determining the spatiotemporal patterns of energy use in the building sector have led to the development of a new set of tools referred to as “urban building energy models” (UBEMs).

Simplified Energy Model and Multi-Objective Energy Consumption Optimization of a Residential House

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Some analyses state that buildings contribute to overall energy consumption by 20–40%, which, in the context of the recent geopolitical energy crisis, makes them a critical issue to study.

Bayesian Calibration for Office-Building Heating and Cooling Energy Prediction Model

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
Conventional building energy models (BEM) for heating and cooling energy-consumption prediction without calibration are not accurate, and the commonly used manual calibration method requires the high expertise of modelers.

Methodology for the Quantification of the Impact of Weather Forecasts in Predictive Simulation Models

open access: yesEnergies, 2019
The use of Building Energy Models (BEM) has become widespread to reduce building energy consumption. Projection of the model in the future to know how different consumption strategies can be evaluated is one of the main applications of BEM.
