Efficient building may incorporate multiple
components from autonomous electricity generation system to waste water regeneration
and number of others. Many of the components have overlapping functions. A specific combination of those components and its interconnection
should be determined based on the needs of the specific building as a
system.
Aero-Solar Predictive Algorithm (ASPA) is an automated Knowledge-Based Algorithm,
accelerating and enhancing the decision-making on the optimal configuration of
the performance thermal energy system for a building, facility or a building
complex. It is built on the principles of Systems Architecture, and comparing
to other products operating within the same space, it has an advantage of being
multi-dimensional (i.e. considering a full set of existing or potential
technology) rather than being optimized by one specific parameter.
The ASPA project has been developed with support from IRAP funding by National Research Council of Canada.
