The building energy performance gap (EPG) seriously restricts the improvement of building
energy efficiency. Currently, although many studies on EPG, it is not yet fully understood and …

A prerequisite for decreasing the intensification of energy in buildings is to evaluate and
understand the influencing factors of building energy performance (BEP). These factors …

Calibration of the energy model of a building is one of the essential tasks required to
determine the efficiency of building management systems, and both their own and other …

With the prevalent use of large glazings, particularly in office buildings, offices receive an
abundance of light and are among the largest consumers of electricity. Moreover, in an …

Building occupancy patterns are an important factor in considering the energy efficiency of
buildings and a key input for building performance modelling. More specifically, the energy …

Accurate forecasting of a building thermal performance can help to optimize its energy
consumption. In addition, obtaining the Heat Loss Coefficient (HLC) allows characterizing …

This study investigates energy consumption in general and in universities in particular. A
literature review was used as the methodology of the study to show the energy consumption …
