With building electric demand becoming increasingly dynamic, and a growing percentage of
intermittent renewable power generation from solar photovoltaics and wind turbines, the …

This paper reviews recent research on the demand flexibility of residential buildings in
regard to definitions, flexible loads, and quantification methods. A systematic distinction of …

The Modelica language, develo** from version 1.0 in 1997 to the current version 3.1, has
become the preferred language for system simulation. Its advantages focus on high-level …

Modeling buildings and smart energy systems requires coupling a wide range of
components into one unified simulation process, which can be difficult given the complexity …

Despite the abundance of research applications of system modeling in grid-interactive
efficient buildings (GEBs), the transfer of those applications to real-world practices is still in …

The performance of model predictive control can be significantly affected by different choices
of controller parameters such as the time intervals for model discretization and control …

Understanding the varying characteristics and aggregate potential of power flexibility from
different building types considering regional diversity is critically important to actively …

Split-type air conditioners (ACs) are the major contributors to the total electricity use and
peak power demand in residential buildings due to their high penetration. Accurate …

This paper presents the first attempt to address the uncertainty in zone temperature
prediction with stochastic optimization. The uncertain zone temperature is a process …

This paper assesses the quality of the services provided for demand response by analysing
the results of experimental work activating flexible sources in buildings, while evaluating the …
