Abstract

In order to improve the conventional method of predicting building energy consumption using artificial neural networks (ANN), we proposed a novel neural network model to forecast building energy consumption. The model optimized the neural network based on genetic algorithm and Levenberg- Marquardt algorithm Firstly genetic algorithm was used to optimize the weight and threshold of ANN, Secondly Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm (LM) was adopted to optimize the neural network training. Then the predicting model based on the new algorithm was set up in terms of the main factors effecting the energy consumption. Furthermore, a public building electric consumption data for one month is collected to train and test the model. The testing results show that the model is more accurate and efficient than the conventional method in predicting short-term energy consumption.
