Forecast Control for Cooling Systems in Existing and New Buildings Based on Weather Prediction

Improving energy efficiency in both existing and new buildings is as a crucial concern, particularly in the context of striving for carbon-neutral buildings in the near future, a potential solution for increasing energy efficiency of buildings involves implementing forecast control system for cooling systems. It is for the reason because there is still a lack of solutions in this aspect the presented article introduces a straightforward approach to forecast control for cooling systems, offering a simple method that takes into account not only outdoor factors but also users' comfort and provides the opportunity to save energy. The developed model is characterized by a percentage error lower than 10%.
