Energy management system for controlling a facility, computer software product, and method for controlling a facility

摘要

An energy management system is provided for controlling a controlled device connected to an energy supply network, which controlled device includes multiple energy-converting elements, wherein the sum of maximum energy conversions of the energy-converting elements is at least 3 kW. The energy management system may include modules that each provide functions used in the control of the controlled device, wherein planning function(s) for planning a future energy conversion of the energy-converting element(s), sensing function(s) for sensing parameter(s) that concern an instantaneous energy conversion of the energy-converting element(s), and control function(s) for specifying control parameter(s) that influence an energy conversion of the energy-converting element(s) are provided as functions. Each module may be designed to communicate with other one(s) of the modules via a communication connection, whereby functions of the module can be used by the other module and/or functions of the other module can be used by the module.
