There are strong policy drivers for the promotion of energy efficiency in buildings. In the literature, Model Predictive Control (MPC) is seen as a promising solution to deal with the energy management problem in buildings. Model identification is the primary task involved in the design of MPC control and defining the good level of complexity for the thermal dynamic model is a critical question. This paper focuses on the development of reliable models that can be used to support the deployment of (Distributive (Di)) MPC application.
