A SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ADAPTIVELY CONTROLLING THE CHARGING TIME OF A STORAGE HEATER

摘要

Provided is a method for adaptively controlling the charging time of a storage heater, comprising: determining a stored energy requirement of the heater; determining a background heat requirement of the heater; determining a daily energy requirement (DER) based on the stored energy requirement and the background heat requirement; and determining a daily run time (DRT) at a predetermined time to calculate the charging time for a following period of time based on the daily energy requirement (DER).
