Evaluating the impact sequences of operation have on the implementation of occupant-centric controls.

Partial occupancy of commercial offices has become the norm in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. Given this, occupant-centric control (OCC), which adapt building systems based on occupants' presence or preferences, offer an alternative to traditional control that assumes full occupancy. However, poor sequences of operation can degrade the benefits of OCC.

The Building Data Genome Project 2, energy meter data from the ASHRAE Great Energy Predictor III competition.

This paper describes an open data set of 3,053 energy meters from 1,636 non-residential buildings with a range of two full years (2016 and 2017) at an hourly frequency (17,544 measurements per meter resulting in approximately 53.6 million measurements). These meters were collected from 19 sites across North America and Europe, with one or more meters per building measuring whole building electrical, heating and cooling water, steam, and solar energy as well as water and irrigation meters.
