ASHRAE Ireland Chapter: Digitizing Buildings with BRICK to Enable Portable Analytics, Modeling, and Control
28th October 2021 @ 5:00 pm - 6:00 pm
Digitizing Buildings with BRICK to Enable Portable Analytics, Modeling, and Controls
Panelist:Carlos Duarte, Postdoctoral Researcher at Center for the Built Environment, UC Berkeley,
Chair: Daniel Coakley, ASHRAE Ireland President 2021-2022
Date/Time: Thursday 28th October 2021 (5:00 - 6:00 PM BST)
Registration Link: https://us06web.zoom.us/j/86511831183?pwd=STRDTkVRazdjYXVIeVJ2dmg4Z09kUT09

Semantic metadata standards, such as Brick, show promise to quickly scale improvements in energy efficiency, equipment operation, maintenance workflows, and occupant satisfaction across the facility management industry. These benefits are possible by providing standardize semantic descriptions of physical, logical, and virtual assets in buildings and the relationships between them to enable interoperability and portability of analytics, modeling, and controls. In this presentation, we will first give an overview of Brick and the Mortar data platform. Brick is an ongoing open-source effort that uses an extensible class hierarchy and minimal set of relationships to build machine readable, directed, labeled graph data model of a building. Mortar is the Modular Open Reproducible Testbed for Analysis & Research that contains data streams and corresponding Brick models for 107 buildings. Then we will discuss how we leverage the capabilities of Brick and Mortar to build single software applications that executes across heterogeneous buildings, acting as a vehicle for reproducible evaluations in building science.
About the Speaker: Carlos Duarte is a postdoctoral researcher at the Center for the Built Environment at University of California, Berkeley. Carlos recently received his PhD in Architecture with an emphasis on Building Science, Technology and Sustainability from UC Berkeley. He received his Bachelor and Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Idaho in 2011 and 2013, respectively. His research interest includes radiant heating and cooling, occupant behavior impact on building energy consumption, and the development of tools that help various building stakeholders. He is currently working on developing portable analytics and control applications that produce knowledge from the wealth of data that modern buildings produce and streamline the implementation of best-in-class HVAC control sequences.

ASHRAE Ireland Chapter - Technical Seminar “Using Data Analytics to deliver ESG for Hitech Manufacturers in Ireland”
4th November 2021 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
ASHRAE Ireland Chapter - Technical Seminar
“Using Data Analytics to deliver ESG for Hitech Manufacturers in Ireland”
Panelist: Paul Walsh, General Manager, CIM
Chair: Daniel Coakley, ASHRAE Ireland President 2021-2022
Date/Time: Thursday 4th 2021 (1:00 - 2:00 PM BST)
Registration Link:https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/691569042979457804
Enquiries: secretary@ashrae-ireland.org
Large Manufacturing facilities are complex to operate, and managing the heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems as well as ensuring correct temperature, air quality, humidity, and overall comfort is particularly challenging. Facilities have streams of existing data within them, which is mainly being used by the BMS to control the building. Once this data is collected, normalised and interrogated to verify how well the facility is actually being controlled, only then can it become useful information. Data Analytics ingests all of the buildings data, and uses machine learning and technical engineering intelligence to deliver clear and actionable insights. This allows engineering, facilities and maintenance teams to operate more efficiently while reducing both the energy consumption and carbon footprint of their sites. This seminar will provide an introduction to Building Data Analytics, explain the challenges Data Analytics solves and the ESG benefits that can be delivered to Hitech manufacturing facilities.
About the Speaker: Leading CIM’s European expansion, Paul joined CIM with a passion for combating climate change and how disruptive technology has the ability to remove barriers to delivering demand-side energy savings for large property owners in a very short time frame. Prior to joining CIM, Paul led the Johnson & Johnson Ireland Energy Team, delivering over 15,000MT of CO2 reduction programs and also working on several sustainability initiatives. With 20 years of industry experience in delivering energy savings, Paul is a Certified Energy Manager with a Bachelor of Technology (Hons) in Manufacturing Technology and an MBA from the University of Limerick.

ASHRAE Ireland Seminar - Optimization under uncertainty of residential building energy demand reduction
16th November 2021 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Optimization under uncertainty of residential building energy demand reduction
Panelist:Jan Hensen, Full Professor of High Performance Building Simulation, Eindhoven University of Technology & Czech Technical University in Prague
Chair: Daniel Coakley, ASHRAE Ireland President 2021-2022
Date/Time: Tuesday 16th November 2021 (1.00 - 2.00 PM BST)
Registration Link: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/570079604732695820
Enquiries: secretary@ashrae-ireland.org
Design-stage computational optimization of residential energy demand is subject to many uncertain assumptions that may result in a considerable gap between predicted and real energy performance. The relevance will be shown of two of the most uncertain assumptions: occupant behavior and weather data. The presentation will then focus on robustness assessment methods for the purpose of optimization under uncertainty. The mini-max regret method will be demonstrated for the case of optimal renovation solutions for existing Dutch houses while considering the interests of different stakeholders such as owner-occupiers and the Dutch government.
