Commercial buildings consume a considerable amount of the world's energy and this can be substantially reduced through strategic monitoring and optimization of their energy consumption. Hence, monitoring and managing the available electrical power is a very important part of conserving energy resources, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and cutting down energy expenses. An attempt has been made to...
A building energy consumption model is presented. The purpose of the model is to provide a test bed to develop Dynamic Load Control (DLC) algorithms and investigate the implications of these to humans in office buildings. The idea of Dynamic Load Control is to manage loads in such a way that the power available from unpredictable sources can be utilized most effectively. In the case of buildings,...
In times of ever increasing power feed-in from fluctuating renewable power sources like wind and solar power it increases the need for more storage capacity to compensate such fluctuations. Electric vehicles (EVs) are often described as a possible way to provide this storage capacity. To make the storage of EVs available in a reasonable manner an energy management system is needed. In our research...
In the operation of central AC (air conditioning) systems, the energy consumption of chillers account for a large amount of proportion. Different numbers and capacities of chillers and their auxiliary facilities will lead to different operating energy consumption. A reasonable installation scheme of chillers and their auxiliary facilities is of great significance in reducing the total energy consumption...
