Building energy efficiency evaluation based on fusion weight method and grey clustering method

Abstract

The renovation and evaluation of building energy-saving projects can provide important support for building an energy-saving society. The study proposes using the contract energy management model to analyze building energy-saving projects and construct an evaluation index system. We also innovatively integrated the Analytic Hierarchy Process and Entropy Weight Method to calculate the weights of indicators, in order to leverage the effective influence of subjective and objective factors. Finally, we used Grey Cluster Analysis to obtain the evaluation effect of building energy-saving projects. Through weight calculation and evaluation analysis, it was found that the energy-saving rates of year-end electricity consumption and air conditioning electricity consumption in buildings after energy-saving renovation were 59.80% and 54.95%, respectively. The overall effectiveness of energy-saving buildings was above 50%, indicating a significant energy-saving effect. In the indicator evaluation system, the weight results of energy-saving service company indicators were relatively high, with values of 0.52, 0.48, and 0.51, respectively. The transformation effect was relatively good. The building energy-saving cost and economic benefits obtained from a 65% energy-saving rate were 3 million yuan and 530,000 yuan, respectively, which were significantly better than the simulation results of other energy-saving rates. The contract energy management model based on the fusion weight method and grey clustering method has superiority, which is effective for evaluating building energy-saving projects. It also provides technical reference and scientific suggestions for building energy-saving renovation.
