Energy Forecasting in a Public Building: A Benchmarking Analysis on Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), Support Vector Regression (SVR), and Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) Networks

Junhui Huang et al.

Summary: Buildings and infrastructures contribute significantly to primary energy consumption and CO2 emissions due to rapid urbanization and social development. Accurate energy consumption forecasting for buildings is crucial for managing adaptive energy consumption and reducing CO2 emissions. However, there are challenges in forecasting energy consumption for buildings, especially residential buildings, due to unpredictable demands and complex factors. Traditional approaches require extensive inputs and face discrepancies between as-built and as-designed buildings. Recent studies have focused on ambient weather conditions, building components, and occupant behaviors. To address these challenges, this study develops advanced machine learning models driven by inherent electricity consumption patterns. Benchmarking results from three different machine learning algorithms (SVR, XGBoost, and LSTM) trained on 1-year datasets with sub-hourly temporal granularity are demonstrated to determine the best predictor. The study findings suggest that the choice of machine learning models for building energy forecasts depends on the natural characteristics of building energy data. Hyperparameter tuning or mathematical modifications within an algorithm may not be sufficient for achieving the most accurate machine learning model for building energy forecasts.

A review on buildings energy information: Trends, end-uses, fuels and drivers

M. Gonzalez-Torres et al.

Summary: Buildings contribute significantly to climate change, but there is a lack of reliable and consistent data for the development and evaluation of mitigation policies. Residential buildings have the highest energy consumption, with HVAC systems being the main source. Electrification has the potential to mitigate climate change if renewable power is promoted, but global cooperation is needed to break the link between economic growth, urbanization, and energy consumption in developing nations.

Energy flexibility of residential buildings: A systematic review of characterization and quantification methods and applications

Han Li et al.

Summary: This paper reviews recent studies on residential building demand side management, focusing on the characterization and quantification of energy flexibility in various types of flexible loads. The studies show that shifting loads is the dominant flexibility type, with control strategies and mathematical formulations playing a key role in achieving flexibility. The review reveals research opportunities to address significant gaps in the existing literature and emphasizes the importance of standardizing definitions, representation of flexibility resources, integrating occupant impacts, and developing requirements and credits of energy flexibility in building energy codes and standards.
