New geo-clustering tool helps understand buildings performance and savings potentials

(eceee news, 6 Sep 2019) The EU funded project ExcEED published a factsheet on the geo-clustering tool, aiming to enable users to cluster buildings to get a better understanding of their building’s performance and evaluate potential energy and cost savings.

The ExcEED platform provides different tools featuring building performance in operational conditions. In August 2019, a factsheet of one of its most central tool - the geoclustering tool - was published.

The user of the platform can visualise the energy and comfort data of its building and assess the buildings’ performance through 27 Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and benchmark the building with similar ones uploaded on the platform, or with another building from its own portfolio.

According to the factsheet, the tool enables users get a better understanding of their building’s performance and can easily evaluate potential energy and cost savings. Geo-clustered data can be used to highlight trans-national similarities and provide useful information to policy makers and legislative bodies for more tailored policy decisions.

The ExcEED project (European Energy Efficient building district Database) aims to take the pulse of the actual energy consumed by last generation of buildings. The project intends to answer the need for transparency and comparability of energy performance calculations.

The scope of ExcEED is to create a European database for measured and qualitative data on beyond the state-of-the-art buildings and districts. One of the objectives of the project are to integrate heterogeneous data in order to create the European energy efficient buildings & district database and platform.
