Motivated by the rising popularity of electric bikes, a form of an electric vehicle, we study the research question of how to design a zero-carbon electric bike share system. Specifically we study the challenges in designing solar charging stations for electric bike systems that enable either net-zero or a fully zero-carbon operation. We design a prototype two bike solar charging station to demonstrate the feasibility of our approach. Using insights and data from our prototype solar charging station, we then conduct a data driven analysis of the costs and benefits of converting an entire bike system into one powered using solar charging stations. Using empirical analysis, we determine the panel and battery capacity for each station, and perform a feasibility evaluation of the system using 8 months of ridership data. Our results show that equipping each bike station with a single grid-tied solar panel is adequate to meet the annual charging demand from electric bikes and achieve net-zero operation using net-metering. For an off-grid setup, our analysis shows that a bike station needs twice as many solar panels, on average, along with a 1.8kWh battery, with the busiest bike station needing 6× more solar capacity than in the net-metering case. Our analysis also reveals a tradeoff between the array size and the battery size needed to achieve true-zero carbon operation for the electric bike share system.","PeriodicalId":287030,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 7th ACM International Conference on Systems for Energy-Efficient Buildings, Cities, and Transportation","volume":"144 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122431982","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Previous studies have proposed learning-based activity classification models, which require similar distributions of CSI for training and testing datasets. However, as CSI varies even in a static environment, the activity classification model trained with data collected in a particular day would be invalid for other time frames. In this context, this study examines the impacts of the CSI temporal variations on the learning-based occupant activity monitoring systems. An experiment was performed to collect the CSI data while an occupant performed daily activities for six days. Three learning-based activity classification models reconstructed from the previous studies were trained and tested with time-dependent cross validation. The performances of the benchmark models were greatly degraded (below 60%) with testing data collected at different days than the training data, while their performances with testing data collected at the same day with training data were over 90%. This study also explores the opportunity to address this issue with transfer learning techniques.","PeriodicalId":287030,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 7th ACM International Conference on Systems for Energy-Efficient Buildings, Cities, and Transportation","volume":"4 1-2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114352376","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While the social distancing measures are being implemented, the aim of this paper is to present a feasible and practical solution for various stakeholders to calculate the maximum number of people that can occupy buildings during the COVID-19 pandemic when the HVAC systems of buildings work based on outside air or a combination of outside and recirculated air. As a result, C-HVAC, as an easy-to-use tool, was developed using thermodynamic principles that can calculate the maximum number of people that can occupy buildings during the COVID-19 pandemic based on ASHRAE's Building Readiness recommendations. The current paper is part of ongoing research on preventing the spread of highly infectious airborne diseases such as COVID-19 in indoor environments. The beta version of the tool is made publicly available through this article.","PeriodicalId":287030,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 7th ACM International Conference on Systems for Energy-Efficient Buildings, Cities, and Transportation","volume":"79 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126179757","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
