Research paper   Buildings & Energy

Paul Ruyssevelt, Stephen Evans, Philip Steadman and Rob Liddiard

Session learning objectives:

  • Provide an overview of Urban Building Energy Model (UBEM) techniques and data sources
  • Describe the use of regional building modeling as a forecasting tool

Demonstrate the ability of 3D mapping techniques to provide wide‐area geometrical information over urban and foliated scenes with evaluation of critical infrastructure (e.g. power line damage and flooding)

Describe an approach for community‐scale modeling using detailed whole‐ building energy models with use cases for district system optimization
