Abstract: With the pressing regulatory requirement to increase energy efficiency in our built environment, significant researching efforts have been recently directed towards energy optimisation with the overall objective of reducing energy consumption. Energy simulation and optimisation identify a class of applications that demand high performance processing power in order to be realised within a feasible time-frame. The problem becomes increasingly complex when undertaking such energy simulation and optimisation in large scale buildings such as sport facilities where the generation of optimal set points can be timing inefficient.
