Abstract
Energy consumption in building sector has been taking a significant percentage of the total energy consumption on earth. This is due to the development of more advanced and sophisticated building appliances to fulfil the comfort requirements. The EU has responded this trend by requiring zero CO2 emission in building by 2020 and by supporting innovative research approaches for improving energy efficiency in buildings with still considering inhabitants comfort. This chapter describes an approach to develop an intelligent system for building specific energy management that allows occupants and facility managers to monitor and control the energy consumption and also detects the energy wasting points. In this chapter, we explain the methodology to develop ontology based information model for building energy management offering expressive representation and reasoning capabilities. We also highlight an approach to develop the ontology as the knowledge base providing the intelligence of the system. Furthermore we show the improvement of the energy performance analysis with the help of ontology based approach.
