Abstract

In order to further improve energyperformance of buildings, intelligentbuilding control is needed which integratesindividual demands and behavior ofoccupants. Intelligent Agent technology issuited to be implemented at different levelsof building automation. Individual agentscontrol the climate for each user of thebuilding in combination with feedback onthe energy consumption can lead to betterindividual comfort and a reduction of energyconsumption. Agents at room level withknowledge of the actual weather andorientation of the windows are used toimprove distribution of available HVACresources within the building and this canlead to better performance at lower costs. Atbuilding level agents can be used tooptimize the settings of central HVACcontrolsand lead to peak reduction.Intelligent Agent technology was tested infield tests at different office buildings in theNetherlands.
