Short Description of the Energy ADE
No widely applicable open model standard exists until now for Urban Energy Modelling.
Developers of new urban energy tools have created their own tailor-made data-models, while municipalities and other urban information data administrators have their own database structure to collect and manage urban information. As such, these models exist without interoperability and exchange possibilities between the stakeholders, tools and expert fields.
Since May 2014, a growing international consortium of urban energy simulation developers and users (14 European organisations from 6 countries in December 2015) has sought to address this need by developing an Urban Energy Information standard, as an Application Domain Extension (ADE) of the CityGML urban information model.
This Energy ADE aims to store the necessary data for space heating and cooling simulation and audits, building occupancy modelling, energy system modelling, solar energy analysis etc.
It aims to deal with different data qualities, levels of details and urban energy models complexities (from monthly energy balance of ISO 13790, to sub-hourly dynamic simulation of softwares like CitySim or EnergyPlus). It takes into consideration the INSPIRE Directive of the European Parliament, as well as the recent US Building Energy Data Exchange Specification (BEDES).
Its structure is thought of as modular; some of its modules can be potentially used and extended for other applications (e.g. module Occupancy for socio-economics, module Materials for acoustics or statics, module Metadata and Scenarios for every urban analysis).
The concrete output of this development is a class diagramm and a XML Schema freely available.
The Energy ADE Development Group
We are an international consortium of urban energy modellers and users from research centers and private companies, created in May 2014 and since constantly growing:

- in France: Centre Scientifique et Technique du Batiment, Electricité de France
- in Italy: Sinergis and Fondazione Graphitech
- in Austria: Austrian Institute of Technology
- in Switzerland: Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, ETH Zürich, kaemco
- in Luxemburg: Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology
- in Netherland: TU Delft
- in USA: Laurence Berkeley Laboratory
