CONTROLLING AN HVAC SYSTEM IN ASSOCIATION WITH A DEMAND-RESPONSE EVENT

A method of carrying out a demand response (DR) event by a control system comprises:identifying a DR event period for the DR event; determining an optimized control trajectory for a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system, wherein the optimized control trajectory minimizes a cost fu...

More Information
Summary:A method of carrying out a demand response (DR) event by a control system comprises:identifying a DR event period for the DR event; determining an optimized control trajectory for a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system, wherein the optimized control trajectory minimizes a cost function comprising a plurality of cost factors; controlling the HVAC system at a beginning of the DR event period in accordance with the optimized control trajectory for the HVAC system; determining, during the DR event period, whether a re-optimization of the optimized control trajectory is needed; performing, when the re-optimization is needed, the re-optimization; and controlling, after the re-optimization, the HVAC system in accordance with a control trajectory based on the re-optimization.
