Abstract

Current approaches for minimizing energy requirement of buildings are not designed to handle multi-input multi-output systems, such as electric vehicle-heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (EV-HVAC) system. Further, scalability of the solutions is another challenge. Present disclosure provides method and system for jointly controlling EV-HVAC system of a building. The system utilizes the potential of electric vehicle (EVs) in building energy management by treating EVs as buffers with random availability. The system performs EV-HVAC joint control that scales seamlessly with increasing EVs while respecting both thermal constraints of HVAC and state of charge (SoC) constraints of EV users.
