An adaptive dynamic programming based method for optimization of electricity consumption in office buildings
Guang Ming Shi, Qinglai Wei, Derong Liu · 2016
In this paper, an adaptive dynamic programming (ADP) based method is developed to optimize electricity consumption of rooms in office buildings through optimal battery management. Rooms in office buildings are generally divided into office room, computer room, storage room, meeting room, etc., each of which has different characteristics of electricity consumption, as divided into electricity consumption from sockets, lights and air-conditioners in this paper. The developed method based on ADP is elaborated, and different optimization strategies of electricity consumption in different categories of rooms are proposed in accordance with the developed method. Finally, a detailed case study on an office building is given to show the practical effect of the developed method.
