Resumo(s)

Due to the high penetration of the buildings in energy consumption, the use of optimization algorithms plays a key role. Therefore, all the producers and prosumers should be equipped with the automation infrastructures as well as intelligent decision algorithms, in order to perform the management programs, like demand response. This paper proposes a multi-period optimization algorithm implemented in a multi-agent Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition system of an office building. The algorithm optimizes the lighting power consumption of the building considering the user comfort constraints. A case study is implemented in order to validate and survey the performance of the implemented optimization algorithm using real consumption data of the building. The outcomes of the case study show the great impact of the user comfort constraints in the optimization level by respect to the office user’s preferences.
