Extend LoFi model transient capability
Background: The systematic underestimation of peak heating load in low-fidelity (LoFi) ideal-load building energy models compared to high-fidelity benchmarks suggests a gap in capturing short-term dynamic behavior.
Question / Future Work: Extend the low-fidelity (LoFi) ideal-load surrogate model to incorporate controlled transient capability, specifically targeting the systematic deviation observed in peak load metrics when compared against high-fidelity model results and benchmark data.
Why It Matters: Accurate peak load prediction is crucial for system-level studies in sector-coupled energy systems, which rely on the computationally efficient LoFi models for large-scale analysis.
Evidence: the demonstrated peak load deviation in energy-scale LoFi validation motivates extending the surrogate to include controlled transient capability when peak metrics are observed.
