Design of a multiagent-based smart microgrid system for building energy and comfort management

Abstract

Modern intelligent control system design methodology in the electric power industry and their features areconsidered when providing the required comfort in multizone buildings with the use of multiagent power consumptionand comfort management systems. Such a control system covers all the monitored zones of a building and, if necessary,can provide the greatest possible overall comfort in the building while reducing the required electric power. The purposeof this study was to develop a comfort management system in a multizoned building that can provide comfort whilereducing the required electric power
