  3. 2. Long-term Forecasting Heat Use in Sweden's Residential Sector using Genetic Algorithms and Neural Network

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för företagande, innovation och hållbarhet

    Author : Alireza Momtaz; Mohammad Befkin; [2024]
    Keywords : Genetic Algorithm; Neural Network; Forecasting; Heat Use;

    Abstract : In this study, the parameters of population, gross domestic product (GDP), heat price, U-value, and temperature have been used to predict heat consumption for Sweden till 2050. It should be noted that the heat consumption has been considered for multi-family houses. Most multi-family houses (MFH) get their primary heat from district heating (DH). READ MORE
