This paper investigates the potential for coordinated control of a large number of residential air conditioning systems to achieve substantial reductions in peak electricity demand. To do so, an extensive data set including home energy audits, homeowner surveys, and electricity meter...

A novel technique for solving a dynamic optimal chiller loading problem is presented. This method reduces the complexity of the dynamic problem by considering all chillers to be a single, optimal chiller, which significantly reduces the number of decision variables. A static optimal chiller...
