Universities have a few tough problems when they try to use energy modeling and simulation technology. Here are some of the main challenges:
High Initial Costs: Sometimes, starting these projects can cost more than $100,000. This makes it hard to fit them into tight budgets.
Skill Gap: About 60% of the staff don’t have enough training to use energy modeling tools properly.
Data Integration: More than 70% of universities have a hard time bringing together different data sources to make accurate models.
Resistance to Change: Around 50% of people involved are not eager to start using new technologies.
