As the proportion of heating venlt lation air conditioning(HVAC) energy consumption in the overall energy consumption of buildings continues to increase
improving energy consumption prediction capability is an important technical measure for enhancing the fine management of building energy consumption and achieving carbon neutrality in the building sector. This paper proposes a Transformer-based multi-scale fusion network model for predicting HVAC energy consumption in buildings. By introducing a multi-scale pyramid module and a temporal convolutional network structure
the model effectively captures both local and global temporal features
thereby improving prediction accuracy. Experimental results show that the model outperforms traditional single models in prediction performance
with a significant reduction in root mean square error (RMSE) and mean absolute error (MAE)
and a determination coefficient () of 0.9826. This model provides an efficient and accurate prediction tool for building energy consumption management and contributes to more efficient building energy management and energy-saving strategies.
