Heating Optimisation of a Multi-Zone Building’s Thermal Comfort Under Stochastic Condition using Data-Driven Model Predictive Control

Model Predictive Control (MPC) has gained popularity in recent years and is widely adopted in building control. This study proposes a novel data-driven robust MPC to make the optimal heating plan, specifically for the multi-zone single-floor building. In this study, the room temperature and relative...
