The objective of this project is to develop a small-scale demonstrative building that permits to show the goodnesses of the energy management algorithms and the underlying ICT architecture.This demonstrator would incorporate real renewable energy sources (solar and wind) and storage (based on batteries). Grid connection would be able to transmit real-time prices. It would connect with a computer which could have IBM IOC installed. The main control areas would be: illumination, energy, watering, security and conditioning.
