Abstract: A method of controlling a chiller is disclosed. The method includes predicting, by a controller, a quantity of energy used by a chiller, based on a predicted flow of heat into one or more rooms in a building, to maintain a temperature of the one or more rooms in a building at a desired temperature during each of a first plurality of time periods of a chilling cycle. The predicted flow of heat is calculated using a predicted condition. A set point of the chiller is automatically adjusted during the chilling cycle using the predicted quantity of energy.

Abstract: A system and method for calculating energy to be preceded or delayed through a deactivation of appliance on a power network to reduce a highest threshold of power production required to meet power demand. Predictions of power demand by appliances and the possibility of preceding or delaying such demand away from a time of high power usage allow power use to be shifted away from periods of peak production. Further, such predictions allow more complete use of power once a power generator has been activated.

Abstract: A method includes predicting, using a predicted flow of heat into an area, a quantity of energy used by a chiller to maintain a temperature of the area at a desired temperature during each of a first plurality of time periods of a chilling cycle. A set point of the chiller is automatically during the chilling cycle using the predicted quantity of energy.
