We are delighted to announce that another research paper from our joint U.S.-Ireland R&D Project was published in the Data in Brief Journal. The paper titled “Urban Residential Building Stock Synthetic Datasets for Building Energy Performance Analysis” proposes an urban building stock dataset consisting of synthetic input and output data for the energy simulation of 1 million buildings. It contains four different residential types: terraced, detached, semi-detached, and bungalow. It includes 19 inputs which include building component U-values, HVAC parameters, and renewable system parameters.
This dataset will be a valuable resource for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers seeking to boost sustainability and energy efficiency in urban building environments. It also holds potential for future research in the field of building energy modeling and analysis. The work is part of the U.S.-Ireland R&D Partnership and Next Generation Energy Systems (NexSys) project funded by the Science Foundation in the Republic of Ireland (RoI), the National Science Foundation (NSF), and the Department for the Economy NI in Northern Ireland.
We appreciate this opportunity for collaboration and look forward to future papers and joint research opportunities as we continue this partnership.
