Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems account for 60% of the energy consumption in commercial buildings. Each year, millions of dollars are spent on electricity bills by commercial building operators. To address this energy consumption challenge, a predictive model named Bayesian optimisation Convolution Neural Network Multivariate Long Short-term Memory (BO CNN-M-LSTM) is introduced in this research. The proposed model is designed to perform load forecasting, optimizing energy usage in commercial buildings. The CNN block extracts local features, whereas the M-LSTM captures temporal dependencies. The hyperparameter fine tuning framework applied Bayesian optimization to enhance output prediction by modifying model properties with data characteristics. Moreover, to improve occupant well-being in commercial buildings, the thermal comfort adaptive model developed by de Dear and Brager was applied to ambient temperature in the preprocessing stage. As a result, across all four datasets, the BO CNN-M-LSTM consistently outperformed other models, achieving an 8% improvement in mean percentage absolute error (MAPE), 2% in normalized root mean square error (NRMSE), and 2% in R2 score.This indicates the consistent performance of BO CNN-M-LSTM under varying environmental factors, highlight the model robustness and adaptability. Hence, the BO CNN-M-LSTM model is a highly effective predictive load forecasting tool for commercial building HVAC systems.
