The United States and countries throughout the world are facing
unprecedented energy challenges in a carbon-constrained world.
Rising residential energy consumption and electric power demand
play a major role in these energy challenges, and present an
environmentally friendly opportunity through demand-side
management. This book presents new control technologies for
residential energy management that bridge energy efficiency and
load management by taking advantage of a new class computing called
wireless sensor networks. A survey of residential energy efficiency
and load management approaches reveals an opportunity to address
heating and cooling through improved control systems. Wireless
sensor networks provide an enabling technology to transform the
conventional sensor-limited thermostat into a disaggregated system
of actuation, sensing, and computation. Experiments show this
disaggregated system can provide up to 30% energy savings without
sacrificing comfort. This book will be of interest to professionals
and researchers in energy, building science, information
technology, and sensor networks.
