MULTIPLE INPUT BUILDING CONTROLLER

摘要

Controllers associated with the high energy devices may are programmed or configured with processing rules by a building manager or an energy usage coordinator such that the controllers can respond to various changing conditions without having to be contacted by the energy usage controller. Such autonomous control allows the controllers to react more quickly to potentially take advantage of advantageous conditions and/or avoid disadvantageous conditions. For example, by tracking information from market information services and/or from historical, current and predicted information services, a controller may be programmed to reduce energy usage autonomously under a number of programmable conditions.
