Energy Management of a Bioclimatic Building Based on Heat Balance Study and Optimal Stand-Alone PV Systems Sizing Using IoT

Abstract

Due to the high energy demand of buildings, countries are required to build energy efficient buildings, especially in areas that suffer from electricity shortages. The aim of this work is to develop an ideal energy management model for a smart bioclimatic building, located in Laghouat (Algeria). The dissertation involves sizing a bioclimatic building based on an estimate of heat balance, to understand heat exchange processes in buildings. In the second phase, the study integrates internet of things (IoT) technology to develop an intelligent energy management system for the building. In addition to size stand-alone PV systems, taking into account factors such as; energy demand and solar radiation. The results contribute to the development of sustainable and energy-efficient building practices, paving the way for a greener future in the built environment.
