Digital twins represent a promising approach for sustainable building operations and management in the context of the carbon neutrality goals of the European Union (EU). Using OpenStudio, an opensource platform for building energy modeling, we demonstrated the creation and editing of building digital twins. OpenStudio provides a user-friendly interface and extensive simulation capabilities, allowing detailed and accurate modeling of building components and systems. Using OpenStudio Measures, users can automate tasks and customize simulation models to optimize the building performance. The process of creating a building digital twin involves collecting historical data and accurately representing the building geometry; materials; schedules; and heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. Challenges such as data availability and model accuracy highlight the importance of modeling practices. Editing the digital twin involves modifying the OpenStudio model files and EnergyPlus weather files to simulate different building operation scenarios. Python programming language opportunities were considered for digital twin file modification. The potential of digital twins lies in their ability to simulate future building conditions and optimize building system settings. By integrating digital twins with machine learning algorithms and connecting them directly to building management systems, optimal building control strategies can be automated, thereby reducing energy consumption and improving occupant comfort levels.
