    Abstract: A method for performing energy management for a building includes generating a stack of energy loads representative of a plurality of building energy loads. The energy loads are prioritized from highest priority energy loads to lowest priority energy loads. The prioritized energy loads are then compared to a building power threshold. The lowest priority energy loads are shed until a sum of remaining energy loads is equal to or less than the building power threshold. The remaining energy loads are serviced. The processes of prioritizing the energy loads, comparing the prioritized energy loads to a building power threshold, and shedding the lowest priority energy loads is repeated in response to changes in circumstances affecting the building.

    Abstract: Methods and systems to minimize energy cost in response to time-varying energy prices are presented for a variety of different pricing scenarios. A cascaded model predictive control system is disclosed comprising an inner controller and an outer controller. The inner controller controls power use using a derivative of a temperature setpoint and the outer controller controls temperature via a power setpoint or power deferral. An optimization procedure is used to minimize a cost function within a time horizon subject to temperature constraints, equality constraints, and demand charge constraints. Equality constraints are formulated using system model information and system state information whereas demand charge constraints are formulated using system state information and pricing information. A masking procedure is used to invalidate demand charge constraints for inactive pricing periods including peak, partial-peak, off-peak, critical-peak, and real-time.
