Optimal building community operation using data-driven mixed-integer convex model predictive control

We propose a new approach to coordinate the energy consumption of the rooftop unit (RTU) heating, cooling, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system of commercial buildings within an aggregation, e.g., building or units of a shopping center. Our approach uses a new specialized solver for neural network-constrained integer programs to optimize the energy consumption while […]
