Patent number: 10795394Abstract: An apparatus for controlling consumption of a resource by a facility includes devices, an occupancy determination system, control nodes, and monitor nodes. The devices each consume a portion of the resource and perform a function. The occupancy determination system is disposed in a network operations center that is external to the facility and generates schedules which coordinate run times for the devices to control the consumption of the resource and adjusts the schedules based upon occupancy components and occupancy levels that are generated based on the consumption of the resource and outside temperature only. The control nodes are coupled to a corresponding one of the devices, and are coupled together via an energy management network that is operatively coupled to the NOC, The control nodes transmit sensor data and device status to the NOC for generation of the plurality of run time schedules, and where the control nodes execute selected ones of the run time schedules to cycle the devices on and off.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2019Date of Patent: October 6, 2020Assignee: Enel X North America, Inc.Inventors: Husain Al-Mohssen, Elizabeth J.
