Την Τετάρτη 23/5/2018 και ώρα 14:00-15:00 στην αίθουσα Κ2.Α1 (Κτίρια ΜηΠερ) θα δοθεί διάλεξη από τον Prof. Lee Siew Eang με θέμα "Building Energy Efficiency Development at NUS: A Learning Journey".
Περίληψη ομιλίας:
The National University of Singapore (NUS) campus is a vast district of 280 buildings and a community of over 50,000 staff and students. Facilities include academic buildings, offices, laboratories and workshops, retails, hospital and clinics, and a cultural centre and museums. It consumes a significant amount of energy and cater for more than 70,000 meals a day. This talk describes Dr. Lee experiences in the development of building energy efficiency through investigating on academic buildings’ energy performance and characteristics. The project was initiated through a campus strategic grant awarded by NUS in 2013. The project come with practical and academic targets and achievements. Basically, it is a data driven investigation into the energy performance of various building typologies. A campus wide energy data collection network comprises energy meters was commissioned by the university. The talk discusses the real world issues of data failures and approaches towards automated data cleaning, energy demand forecasting, identification modeling and automated energy audit development. An energy dashboard was also developed. In conclusion, the way forward and the potential of researching on campus level energy efficiency will be discussed.
