Article Synopsis
  • The integration of Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Building Energy Modeling (BEM) is now a key area of research aimed at decreasing energy use in buildings during planning and operation phases.
  • There is a lack of studies utilizing multi-objective optimization algorithms in the BIM-BEM process for automatic optimization in building development.
  • This study introduced an EnergyPlus integrated multi-objective jellyfish search (EP-MOJSO) system, which successfully reduced total costs by 10.7% and energy usage by 65 kWh/m/year in a real building case, potentially enhancing sustainable building practices.

The development of a reliable energy use prediction model is still difficult due to the inherent complex pattern of energy use data. There are few studies developing a prediction model for the one-day-ahead energy use prediction in buildings and optimizing the hyperparameters of a prediction model is necessary. This study aimed to propose a hybrid artificial intelligence model for forecasting one-day ahead time-series energy consumption in buildings.

Building energy efficiency is important because buildings consume a significant energy amount. The study proposed additive artificial neural networks (AANNs) for predicting energy use in residential buildings. A dataset in hourly resolution was used to evaluate the AANNs model, which was collected from a residential building with a solar photovoltaic system.
