Study on the cooling heating and power load prediction method in community building energy planning

Community building load prediction is the foundation and key to community building energy planning and community energy supply system design. The present load prediction methods for a single building are relatively mature. But load prediction for community buildings are more complicated than that for single buildings. In this paper, load prediction methods currently used for community buildings are first discussed categorically. Based on the previous work, prototypical building scenario load prediction method is proposed. Then taking Dawangdian community as an example, prototypical building scenario load prediction method is used to predict the cooling, heating and power loads.
