Summary

Stationary fuel cells can generate both electrical power and heat, making them a promising local source to serve building loads. In this paper, we develop an optimal energy dispatch controller to operate a fuel cell-integrated building. The controller leverages the inherent thermal storage in the building to reduce its operating cost and to allow the building to participate in providing grid services. The proposed controller is tested in a co-simulation setup, where the real building is represented as a high-fidelity model in EnergyPlus.
