Vault — residential solar thermal heating systems
Enhancing energy efficiency and thermal comfort in residential towers through multi-objective optimization and energy hub systems
This study links retrofit optimization with district energy scheduling for a 17-story residential tower. An EnergyPlus model coupled with NSGA-II selected insulation, glazing, shading, and setpoint changes that cut annual energy use by 14.85% and lowered average predicted percentage dissatisfied from 29.51% to 18.69%. Scaled to 816 units in an energy hub model, storage with demand response reduced operating cost by 19.90%.
