This paper presents a distributed controller for adjusting the electrical consumption of a residential building in response to an external power setpoint in Watts. The controller is based on a multi-agent system and has been implemented in JCSP. It is modularly built, capable of self-configuration and adopting to a dynamic environment.The paper describes the overall architecture and the design of the individual agents. Preliminary results from proof-of-concept tests on a real building are included.
