Overview: This paper proposes a dynamic optimization technique for building heating and cooling systems. The proposed algorithm returns trajectories for space temperature setpoints throughout a specified period that will minimize objective functions such as running cost or peak energy consumption. It can be applied to buildings for which the thermal mass allows various choices of temperature setpoints. It also includes modeling of the building's thermal characteristics, optimization techniques, and example studies. It also describe an optimization technique which delivers an optimal on off schedule and temperature setpoints for directly optimizing objective functions such as running cost or peak electrical demand.
