A Decision Making Technique to Optimize a Buildings’ Stock Energy Efficiency
提出一种两步决策技术,先用多目标优化算法再用多属性排序,为建筑群制定最优节能改造方案,平衡效率、可持续性和舒适度,并有效分配资金。
This paper focuses on applying multicriteria decision making tools to determine an optimal energy retrofit plan for a portfolio of buildings. We present a two-step decision making technique employing a multiobjective optimization algorithm followed by a multiattribute ranking procedure. The method aims at deciding, in an integrated way, the optimal energy retrofit plan for a whole stock of buildings, optimizing efficiency, sustainability, and comfort, while effectively allocating the available financial resources to the buildings. The proposed methodology is applied to a real stock of public buildings in Bari, Italy. The obtained results demonstrate that the approach effectively supports the city governance in making decisions for the optimal management of the buildings' energy efficiency.
