Optimizing Heat Pump Control in an NZEB via Model Predictive Control and Building Simulation

Optimizing Heat Pump Control in an NZEB via Model Predictive Control and Building Simulation

EU regulations get stricter from 2028 on by imposing net-zero energy building (NZEB) standards on new residential buildings including on-site renewable energy integration. Heat pumps (HP) using thermal building mass, and Model Predictive Control (MPC) provide a viable solution to this problem. Howev...
