To reduce HVAC energy inefficiencies, fault detection and diagnostics (FDD) has become a growing field of interest. In particular, air handling units (AHU), devices that circulate air and regulate room temperature and humidity, are the primary focus of most HVAC FDD systems. A data-driven FDD for Read more
Reinforcement learning for urban energy systems & demand response
Demand response, or demand-side management, improves grid stability by increasing demand flexibility, and shifts peak demand towards periods of peak renewable energy generation by providing consumers with economic incentives. Reinforcement learning has been utilized to control diverse energy systems Read more
Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning for demand response & building coordination
We have introduced a new simulation environment that is the result of merging CitySim, a building energy simulator, and TensorFlow, a powerful machine learning library for deep learning. This new simulation environment has the potential for developing building energy scenarios in which machine Read more
