Abstract:

Buildings are responsible for a significant portion of energy consumption worldwide. Intelligent buildings have been devised as a potential solution, where energy consumption and building use are harmonised. At the heart of the intelligent building is the building energy management system (BEMS), the central platform which manages and coordinates all the building monitoring and control subsystems, such as heating and lighting loads. There is often a disconnect between the BEMS and the building it is installed in, leading to inefficient operation, due to incongruous commissioning of sensors and

Abstract:

The introduction of building management systems in large buildings have improved the control of building services and provided energy savings. However, current building management systems are limited by the physical level of integration of the building's services and the lack of intelligence provided in the control algorithms. This thesis proposes a new approach to the design and operation of building management systems using rule-based artificial intelligence techniques. The main aim of is to manage the services in the building in a more co-ordinated and intelligent manner than is possible by

With an increasing awareness of energy consumption and CO 2emission in the population, several initiatives to reduce CO2emissions have been presented all around the world. The main part of these initiatives is a reduction of the energy consumption for existing buildings, while the others concern the building of eco-districts with low-energy infrastructures and even zero-energy infrastructures. In this idea of reducing the energy consumption and of developing new clean areas, this master thesis will deal with the high energy quality services for new urban districts.

Accordingly, there are several efforts that target energy efficiency in buildings both at the European and Swedish levels. The role of buildings in climate change mitigation, however, is not limited to energy savings. Buildings are expected to become key elements of the future smart energy systems by supplying and using energy in a more flexible way. Reducing the energy demand in buildings effectively and shifting the role of buildings in energy systems from ‘passiv

Abstract:

The rapid expansion in the construction industry worldwide has placed more pressure on the available natural resources, as the various construction activities and the services they require, increasingly draw on supplies of water and energy. The provision of these utilities and their continual maintenance activites within a building, promote human daily sustenance, and economic development generally, but the exploitation of these resources, their environmental impact, socio-economic implications, and sustainability, all necessitate proper management. Indeed, sustainability has now become the co

Abstract:

The Swedish energy power system is in the middle of a paradigm shift where the increased share of intermittent energy sources place higher demand on the ability to regulate and balance the generation and consumption of electricity. Demand flexibility, which means that consumers can adjust their energy consumption, is a promising solution to manage the imbalance in the power system. Electric heat pumps in residential buildings are recognized to have potential to serve as a flexible load. In this thesis, an aggregated multi-family residential building model is developed to generate heat load pro

Abstract:

The smart grid, as the next generation of power grid, has redefined the positions of the homes and buildings in the contexts of a whole energy system. With the increasing installation of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) and retention of Electric Vehicles (EVs) and Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs), the energy system of homes and buildings in power distribution network is becoming more and more complex. In order to find the efficient and effective way for managing the appliances and DERs in smart homes and buildings through the Energy Management System (EMS), the pathway of the thesis

Abstract:

A technique is presented for estimating hourly and seasonal energy consumption profiles in the building sector at spatial scales down to the individual taxlot or parcel. The method combines annual building energy simulations for cityspecific prototypical buildings and commonly available geospatial data in a Geographical Information System (GIS) framework. Hourly results can be extracted for any day and exported as a raster output at spatial scales as fine as an individual parcel (

Abstract:

The distributed operation of parts of the system, denoted as microgrids or, more generally, as local energy communities, could be an effective answer to the issues posed by the increasing complexity of the modern power distribution systems facing the increasing penetration of renewable energy sources and the electrification of urban transportation. The results of the research activities described in the thesis can be divided into three main parts. The first one is the modeling and analysis of low voltage power distribution networks feeding residential, commercial and small-scale industrial c

Abstract:

This thesis investigated the use cases of Electric Vehicles (EV) and stationary battery storage in a multi-level energy system with high penetration of renewable DER. The different energy system levels considered include large and local level, distribution network and customer premises. The reduction of excess electricity due to high shares of renewable energy technologies by using EV with Vehicle to Grid capability in a future GB energy system was investigated. It was found that with EV in vehicle to grid mode integrated into the energy system, the utilisation of fluctuating wind power was in

Abstract:

Building portfolio management on campus and metropolitan scale involves decisions about energy retrofits, energy resource pooling, and investments in shared energy systems, such as district cooling, community PV and wind power, CHP systems, geothermal systems etc. There are currently no tools that help a portfolio/campus manager make these decisions by rapid comparison of variants. The research has developed an energy supply network management tool at the campus scale. The underlying network energy performance (NEP) model uses (1) an existing energy performance toolkit to quantify the energy p
