Design of PLC based Building Control for Energy Optimization

Building energy efficiency will be critical for countries all over the world to reduce their energy usage and emissions. Building automation and control (BACS) systems play a key role in achieving this goal, as well-designed and operated BACS systems offer a wide range of possibilities for optimizing the energy performance of various systems. By turning on and off household appliances only when they are needed, the PLC-based building automation and control strategy used significantly reduces energy consumption.
