Smart controls and thermal storage are solutions to increase grid flexibility and reduce energy use but its implementation requires careful planning and coordination. This becomes more challenging in a connected community, as most studies have focused on single building. The aggregation of cooling loads with a campus or connected community provides increased opportunities to achieve cost and energy savings. This session presents four energy conservation applications of optimized controls, with and without thermal storage, across multiple scales – from district cooling plants to residential HVAC. Using example case studies, cost-energy tradeoffs of the optimization scenarios are presented.
