Recent years have seen accelerated development of building technologies that enable real time direct and/or indirect occupant control of HVAC, lighting, and plug loads. Measured and simulated tests of these occupant-centric control technologies suggest that their energy savings potential may be substantial but that savings are highly uncertain and could come at the expense of reduced occupant comfort and/or higher installed cost. This seminar seeks to clarify the definition of occupant-centric control measures and explore the degree to which these measures can balance the sometimes competing objectives of occupant comfort, energy use, and cost of deployment.
