Early design phase energy modeling is used to provide the design team with first order of magnitude feedback about the impact of various building configurations. For better energy-conscious and sustainable building design and operation, the construction of BIM data interoperability for energy performance assessment in the early design phase is important. The purpose of this study is to suggest construction of BIM data interoperability for energy performance assessment based on BIM. To archive this purpose, the authors have investigated advantage of BIM-based energy performance assessment through comparison with traditional energy performance assessment and suggested requirement for construction of open BIM environment such as BIM data creation, BIM data software practical use, BIM data application and verification. In addition, the authors have suggested BIM data interoperability and BIM energy property mapping method focused on materials.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to provide information on building's energy consumption and efficiency for general building users through a mobile application. Method: This paper presents a mobile application process and building energy assessment models for general users to understand easily. There are two assessment models, one is based on the energy consumption. The other is based on the architectural planning factors of a building. The assessment models are proposed to understand buildings' energy efficiency and to compare the energy consumption level for general users. The applicability of proposed application has been evaluated by conducting a case study. The case study is targeting university buildings. Result: Energy efficiency potentials were proposed using weighting factor which was calculated by the impact on energy consumption of a building according to parameters. The mobile application used the simple energy assessment model by energy efficiency potentials and was developed for a smartphone By using the mobile application, numerous general users of smartphones can easily and conveniently access information pertaining to buildings, energy consumption, and reductions in energy consumption. The proposed application enables user to find more energy efficient buildings by comparing energy status and energy efficiency potential by given information.

This paper describes the resource assessment of theoretical potential of ocean energy including tidal current energy, tidal range energy, wave energy and ocean thermal energy in Korea to provide reliable basis for feasible development plan of ocean energy. Because of different characteristics of each ocean energy resources, the resource assessment methods were established considering characteristics of each ocean energy resources. The coastal region of Korea has been divided into 10 regions. The results show that tidal current energy is abundant in Incheon-Gyunggi and Jeollanam-do and tidal range energy is abundant in Incheon-Gyunggi. And wave energy is abundant in Jeollanam-do, Jeju and Gyeongsangbuk-do and there is ocean thermal energy in Gangwon-do and Gyeongsangbuk-do.

Nowadays, AEC industry tries to adopt BIM for low-carbon and eco-friendly building development. With increasing environment policies, many of global construction projects require the adoption of BIM for its many advantages. The advantages can be maximized with Open BIM since it can produce optimal results for various purposes of energy performance assessment. However there are some troubles in representation and property information in the process of Open BIM based energy performance assessment. To examine such troubles, this study focuses on differences between IFC of Open BIM and IDF format of Energy Plus known as the most accurate and diverse energy performance assessment. Two issues the study addresses are form representation and property information. The study figures out the different definition of IFC and IDF, and suggests the way of interoperability. The interoperability test of IFC for building energy performance assessment hope to develop of Open BIM based energy assessment.

Due to the increase of carbon dioxide and building regulations, BIM is considered a way of low-carbon and eco-friendly building development for its many advantages. The advantages can be maximized with Open BIM since it can produce optimal results for various purposes of energy performance assessment. However there are some problems in data interoperability in the process of Open-BIM based energy performance assessment. To solve such problems, this study focuses on space boundary information interoperability between IFC of Open BIM and IDF format of Energy Plus known as the most accurate and diverse energy performance assessment. The study analyzes the analogous study then figures out the problems of IFC based energy performance analysis, and suggests the way of interoperability. Finally, the development of automation program makes this way much more effective. The study of IFC data interoperability is useful for improving the reliability of Open-BIM based energy assessment.
