Reinforcement Learning of HVAC Systems
Reinforcement learning (RL) was first demonstrated to be a feasible approach to controlling heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems more than a decade ago. However, there has been limited progress towards a practical and scalable RL solution for HVAC control. While one can train an RL agent in simulation, it is not cost-effective to create a model for each thermal zone or building. Likewise, existing RL agents generally take a long time to learn and are opaque to expert…
