Patent attributes
A controller for heating, ventilation, or air conditioning (HVAC) equipment including a processing circuit configured to perform a first optimization to generate a first set of control decisions for HVAC equipment including waterside HVAC equipment that consume resources from utility providers to generate a heated or chilled fluid and airside HVAC equipment that receive and use the fluid from the waterside HVAC equipment to heat or cool a supply of airflow for a building. The processing circuit is configured to perform a second optimization subject to a constraint based on a result of the first optimization to generate a second set of control decisions for the HVAC equipment and to combine the first and second sets to generate a combined set of control decisions for the HVAC equipment. The processing circuit is configured to operate the HVAC equipment in accordance with the combined set of control decisions.
