  • Publication number: 20250075933
    Abstract: A building chiller/heat pump system includes a chiller/heat pump system for supplying a conditioned fluid to change a temperature of air being delivered into a building. The chiller/heat pump system is provided with a control to achieve a desired setpoint of the air delivered into the building. The control is programmed to receive a prediction of expected remission levels in energy that will be delivered to power the chiller/heat pump system. The control is programmed to change the setpoint such that an energy level required to operate the chiller/heat pump system to achieve the setpoint will drop when the expected emissions level increases, and adjusts the setpoint in an opposed direction when the expected emissions drops. A method is also disclosed.
