Description

Summarises the research effort in the development of an expert system for energy use evaluation of buildings. Examines the particular characteristics of the predetermination of energy inefficient buildings and cost effective energy retrofit alternatives and how they may be solved by the use of an expert system. States the system interacts with the user and aids in the determination of suitability for a full energy audit by simulating energy experts’ decision making processes. Claims the project illustrates that expert systems are capable of performing preliminary energy audit tasks with greater consistency, lower costs and higher accuracy.
