Sustainable Energy Management System for Underground Stations

From Linked Building Data Community Group
  • Title: Sustainable Energy Management System for Underground Stations
  • Description: Sustainable Energy Management is achieved through the development of an advanced energy management system for metro stations involving model based control of forced ventilation, lighting and passenger transfer systems.
  • Data Domain(s): Building Control, Energy, Building Data, Building Behavior, Geolocation and Weather
  • Objectives: Implementing a large case study of optimal control of systems in public spaces
  • Stakeholders: Project Engineers, Local Employees, Line/Station Operators/Managers
  • Requirements:
  • LD benefits:
  1. Prediction of station performance under different control conditions
  2. Calculation, for every control cycle, of optimal set points, regarding both consumption and comfort, in the current conditions
  3. Modeling of occupancy and flows
  • Challenges:
  1. the holistic control of all sub-systems, components and equipment of the station and the combination of information from all connected devices, from the Internet and from energy service providers to achieve efficient control, taking into account the users' needs and preferences.
  2. The measurement and verification of the forced ventilation system retrofit, because of the multiplicity of external influencing factors that have seasonal dynamics.
