Creating New Urban Heat Loss and Energy Efficiency (EE) Metrics with Airborne Thermal Imagery

This project will use MyHEAT’s thermal imagery to quantify rooftop heat loss in GJ/year and evaluate a newly proposed building energy efficiency metric (eq 4) that explicitly includes waste energy. By integrating this imagery with detailed energy consumption data, physics-informed machine learning and building archetypes, we will create scalable, operational methods to measure, model, monitor and compare waste heat and energy efficiency that is applicable across MyHEAT’s millions of buildings in 50+ cities
