Abstract

Cost-effective building energy optimization solutions have a strategic function to assist German and European energy policies for the simple reason that buildings account for 40% of the total energy consumption in Europe. The International Energy Agency considers energy efficiency as the first fuel and a major resource. In this work, a cost-effective building energy optimization system consisting of 14 different wireless network embedded sensors, control units (actuators), wireless communication protocol, multi-dimensional information management system, context sensitive graphical user interfaces and energy optimization software with artificial intelligence-backed control algorithms is examined. The R&D activity is accomplished in the ‘Intelligent Building Energy Management System’ research project, which is funded by the State of Lower Saxony (Germany) in the frame of Innovation Support Program between the years 2014 and 2018. The ‘Energy Optimization System (EOS)’, which is subject to this research, reduces the total energy use and CO₂ emissions of buildings through optimization of energy-consuming building systems, such as heating, cooling, lighting systems and home/office appliances with the support of an integrated system solution consisting of artificial intelligence-based software and wireless network embedded hardware. The system is deployed and validated in two appropriately selected test buildings in Germany. It has been recorded that the system provides energy efficiency levels between 29.34% and 38.18% under different seasonal and occupancy conditions in office and residential building types. The developed system can be deployed to all types of historical and new buildings to optimize energy consumption and reduce carbon emissions.

德国建筑类型的智能能源优化系统开发和验证

摘要

具有成本效益的建筑能源优化解决方案具有协助德国和欧洲能源政策的战略功能，原因很简单，建筑占欧洲总能耗的 40%。国际能源署将能源效率视为首要燃料和主要资源。在这项工作中，一个具有成本效益的建筑能源优化系统由 14 个不同的无线网络嵌入式传感器、控制单元（执行器）、无线通信协议、多维信息管理系统、上下文敏感的图形用户界面和具有人工智能的能源优化软件组成支持的控制算法进行了检查。研发活动在“智能建筑能源管理系统”研究项目中完成，₂通过基于人工智能的软件和无线网络嵌入式硬件组成的集成系统解决方案，通过优化能源消耗的建筑系统，如供暖、制冷、照明系统和家庭/办公设备来减少建筑物的排放。The system is deployed and validated in two appropriately selected test buildings in Germany. 据记录，该系统在办公和住宅建筑类型的不同季节和占用条件下提供了 29.34% 至 38.18% 的能源效率水平。开发的系统可以部署到所有类型的历史建筑和新建筑，以优化能源消耗和减少碳排放。
