Proactive Management for Smart Buildings

Abstract:

Self-sustainability and near-zero energy consumption have already become common requirements for construction of new buildings. Apart from the existing traditional ways for improving building energy efficiency like introducing novel architectural solutions or new building materials, the role of energy management has been increasingly seen as pivotal. Nowadays buildings rely on their management systems to provide optimised energy supply solutions and meet their energy demand targets from on-site generation and storage installations. In this paper the latest developments in proactive approach in management of building resources will be presented and critically compared to the existing electrical energy efficiency methods based on reactive type of control. Simulation and cost/benefit results are used to demonstrate the performance improvements achieved by deploying the proactive management system.
