E – 3066 Introduction to AI Tools for Building Performance and Energy Analysis

As buildings account for approximately 40 percent of global energy consumption and carbon emissions, the need for smarter, more efficient building operations has never been more critical. This comprehensive course introduces building professionals to the transformative world of artificial intelligence and machine learning as applied to building performance and energy analysis. Whether you are an architect, engineer, facility manager, or sustainability consultant, this course will equip you with the foundational knowledge needed to understand, evaluate, and implement AI-driven solutions in your projects and organizations.

By completing this course, you will gain practical insights into how AI technologies can optimize building design, detect equipment faults before they cause costly failures, predict energy consumption with greater accuracy, and automate real-time building controls. Research and pilot projects have demonstrated energy savings of 10 to 30 percent through AI-driven optimization, making these tools essential for meeting increasingly stringent sustainability requirements and reducing operational costs. This course bridges the gap between cutting-edge technology and practical application, preparing you to lead the transformation toward a more sustainable built environment.
