The Hourly Energy Consumption Prediction by KNN for Buildings in Community Buildings

With the development of metering technologies, data mining techniques such as machine learning have been increasingly used for the prediction of building energy consumption. Among various machine learning methods, the KNN algorithm was implemented to predict the hourly energy consumption of community buildings composed of several different types of buildings. Based on the input data set, 10 similar hourly energy patterns for each season in the historic data sets were chosen, and these 10 energy consumption patterns were averaged. The prediction results were analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively. The prediction results for the summer and fall were close to the energy consumption data, while the results for the spring and winter were higher than the energy consumption data. For accuracy, a similar trend was observed. The values of CVRMSE for the summer and fall were within the acceptable range of ASHRAE guidelines 14, while higher values of CVRMSE for the spring and winter were observed. In sum, the total values of CVRMSE were within the acceptable range.
