There is considerable interest in the building energy community of ways to design low energy and even net-zero energy buildings. In conjunction with this focus, there needs to be an equal amount of emphasis placed on ways to operate such buildings so that the full advantages of all the new elements and control features being proposed are being fully realized. Many of these features involve dynamic control of building elements. This seminar covers promising and emerging techniques by three distinguished speakers on active daylighting control, on mixed mode cooling strategies, and embedded supervisory control strategies for building systems.
