  • Patent number: 9507333
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for forecasting the energy consumption of a building, taking into account the heat exchanges from received solar radiation and/or heat convection and/or conduction between the building and the outside environment based on a physical model. The method includes a learning step to deduce the value of the parameters of the physical model based on previous measurements performed on the building.

  • Publication number: 20150148976
    Abstract: Method for forecasting the energy consumption of a building, characterized in that it comprises a step of taking into account the heat exchanges from received solar radiation and/or heat convection and/or conduction between the building and the outside environment based on a physical model implemented by a computer, and in that it comprises a learning step to deduce therefrom the value of the parameters of the physical model based on measurements performed on the building in the past.

  • Patent number: 8396694
    Abstract: A method of forecasting the electrical production of a photovoltaic device comprising photovoltaic modules (1), comprising a first part of estimating the lighting that will be received in the plane of the photovoltaic modules (1) and a second part of estimating the electrical production of the photovoltaic device, characterized in that it comprises the following first step: (E1)—determination of whether a period concerned is sunny or cloudy, and characterized in that it comprises the following second step (E2) of implementing at least one of the following two steps: (E2)—correction of the second part of the method of forecasting the electrical production based on the measurement of the true electrical production of the photovoltaic modules if the period concerned is sunny; and/or correction of the first part of the method of forecasting the electrical production based on the measurement of the true electrical production of the photovoltaic modules if the period concerned is cloudy.
