Rapid Energy Modeling Workflow Demonstration

Abstract

The DoD has a critical need to evaluate energy consumption of existing facilities. To address this need Rapid Energy Modeling (REM) methodology was deployed. The workflow captures and information on operations and geometry of a building, generates a 3D building model and then simulates energy use patterns and reports on energy conservation measures. REM was applied to a sample of 23 DoD buildings. The simulated and actual building energy data was analyzed by energy type (electricity and natural gas) and energy use intensity (EUI).
