Current information modelling and software tools in buildings are deficient in their ability to integrate and process building energy data to deliver actionable information to support decision making process at an Energy Management (EM) level. Therefore, this paper introduces two software tools for the creation of sophisticated energy consumption aggregation for the improvement of Energy Efficiency (EE) in buildings and the optimization of the Building Energy Management (BEM) process. These tools are: Data Warehouse (DW) technology and Data Mining (DM) techniques. Furthermore, this paper describes the strategy of their inclusion into the (BEM) field, followed by an explanation of how EM benefits from this usage. It also details energy data aggregations and their application into the EM area.
