Zenodo. https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.10200807 electricity heat cold GenSim - for "generic building simulation" - is a building simulation software using the EnergyPlus® simulation engine to generate high-resolution heating and cooling demand profiles as well as electricity demand profiles for buildings with various types of use. "Generic" in this context refers to a "generally valid" building model. This means that the software is versatile enough to simulate any type of building in a very flexible and simplified way, enabling users to efficiently adapt the software for any building design. GenSim was specifically devloped for the use during project pre-planning where detailed simulations of buildings are challenging due to typically constrained time budgets and limited availability of information. Traditional simulation tools require extensive input data, making the process time-consuming. GenSim addresses this by providing presets for multiple building typologies and a streamlined approach for quick, simple, yet accurate building simulations. This is particularly valuable in early planning stages when only rough data about the planned buildings is available. If more detailed information (wall structure, detailed geometry, specific use, ...) is available about the building to be examined, this can be used for more precise results.
