Determination of Effectiveness of Energy Management System in Buildings

Building Energy Management Systems (BEMS) are computer-based systems that aid in managing, controlling, and monitoring the building technical services energy consumption by equipment used building. The effectiveness of BEMS is dependent upon numerous factors, among which operational characteristics control parameters also play an essential role. This research develops a user-driven simulation tool where users can input controls to determine their BEMS. gives user flexibility understand potential savings employing specific help making intelligent decisions. developed using Visual Basic Application (VBA) Microsoft Excel, based on discrete-event Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS). works initially calculating required for space cooling heating current model. Further, during second simulation, selects all improved envelope case. model compares from first simulation. Then will provide rating continuous scale 1 5 (1 being poor excellent BEMS). work intended facilitate owner/energy managers analyze performance concerning efficacy management system.
