Abstract
Energy interaction among buildings play a vital role when considering the energy demand at neighbourhood or urban scale which notably influence the energy system sizing problem. The proper representation of buildings and their effects such as drag force effects, generation of turbulence, shading etc. are crucial in the evaluation of building energy demand and subsequently in energy system sizing. This is not practiced in present literature. To achieve this, we couple a meteorological model, a building energy model and an energy system tool. We show that the use of local climatic data and urban planning scenario have a significant impact on the design of energy systems. More importantly, the results of the study show that co-simulation platform coupling meteorological model, building simulation model and energy system designing model can help to design energy efficient neighbourhoods with more renewable energy integration.
