Abstract

Energy saving has become a hot issue all over the world. To minimize the energy use in buildings, the cooperative control coupled with heating, cooling, lighting and blind control system was proposed in this study. The blind condition is optimized to minimize the total energy of heating, cooling and lighting. In this study, the control behaviors and energy saving effect of the proposed system were evaluated by field measurement. The results show that the proposed control system reduces the cooling energy demand by about 40.8% and 19.6% of the lighting energy compared to the conventional control system with maintaining the same thermal comfort level. The total energy saving rate reached 29.7%.
