C-3 Study on Optimal Operation of Heat Source System in BEMS with Load Prediction and Relation between Supply/Demand : Part 7 : Evaluation of the Optimal Control System for Heating, Cooling and Power Plant

Abstract

The optimal control system for real-time operation of a district heating cooling and power plant was evaluated through a year operation concerning the improvement of its control performance and the reduction of CO_2 emission and operational cost of a plant. Through the evaluation, the optimal control system was estimated to reduce 4% CO_2 emission and 2 % operational cost of a plant. The optimal control system is continuing the control of the district heating cooling and power plant successfully for more than 1.5 years since the start of the evaluation.
