Abstract

Using energy more efficiently is one of the easiest ways to save money, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and meet growing energy demands. Electricity consumption control is an emergent topic worldwide. The passive house idea is not new, but it is still actual and is discussed by researchers. This paper brings to the reader’s attention the combined use of fuzzy and fractional control methods to increase the performance of electricity consumption control, taking into account the current challenges in the energy field, together with a method for the automatic definition of fuzzy rules. In comparison with the no-control case, a 20% reduction in consumption is achieved with the present proposal. In the case of another control method, a 15% reduction was possible using Shakeri’s team’s method. The simulation of the proposed passive house control proves that it could ensure efficient electricity consumption that can be translated into electricity cost savings between 10 and 50 percent.
