Title:
ENERGY CONTROL DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/105567
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is an energy control device capable of quickly responding to a request and also capable of satisfying the comfort of a user, when an energy minimization request is received from an energy provider. An energy control device (30) for adjusting energy amounts for a plurality of air conditioners installed in a facility is provided with a receiving unit (36e), a basic-adjustable-amount calculation unit (36f), and a control-command generation unit (36i). The receiving unit receives an energy minimization request containing information about a requested minimization energy amount that must be minimized in a facility. The basic-adjustable-amount calculation unit calculates a basic-adjustable amount of energy for each air conditioner independently from the requested minimization energy amount when the energy minimization request is received, on the basis of the air-conditioner operating conditions when the energy minimization request is received. On the basis of the basic-adjustable amount of energy, the control-command generation unit provides the air conditioners with instructions regarding energy-amount adjustment control, in a manner such that the total energy amount minimized in the facility equals the requested minimization energy amount.
