Abstract:

In the quest to reduce energy while preserving comfort in the building sector, we need tools that enable efficient evaluation and benchmarking of energy, water and indoor environmental performance. This offers a great challenge since today’s buildings are complex, they are rarely operated optimally, and recently adopted evaluation parameters are very comprehensive. Wireless sensing is an enabling technology for creating an advanced generation cart that addresses these challenges. In this presentation, we will focus on the design and development of a mobile toolkit that uses wireless sensing to facilitate building performance evaluations. We will describe the purpose, measurement methods, and system design of the toolkit.
