Sensitivity analysis of building physical parameters to maximize heating energy saving using MPC (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Vand, B., Lopes, Y. K., Hathway, E. A., & Rockett, P. (in press). Sensitivity analysis of building physical parameters to maximize heating energy saving using MPC. In Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference of Energy Harvesting, Storage, and Tran

Buildings are one of the largest energy consumers and emitters of CO2, and they consume a significant portion of the overall energy in the world [1]. There is an increased interest in using model-predictive control (MPC) to optimise building performa...
