Building as batteries for a flexible energy grid
Hao Huang @BuildingsAlive
#SummerStudy20 #smartbuildings
By collecting data from chillers, cooling towers, water pumps, and return air fans, #building System engineers and designers can anticipate regions for increasing load in non-peak energy periods
Increasing load of chillers in off-peak hours can quite literally save costs & build demand for renewable energy. Plus, this can help electric grids adapt loads as renewable energy sources fluctuate
(when the sun goes down or the wind stops blowing)
#solarenergy #smartcities
Chillers consume quite a lot of energy. For #building & #realestate managers look to seek adaptive use and creative forms of storage to decrease energy & also
use Hao Huang's model to predict & model such loads in your buildings
