Abstract: The implementation of energy flexibility using thermal storage of building structure is one of the key solutions for buildings in contributing to a stable exploitation and distribution of renewable energy. The objective of this study is to investigate the performance of energy flexibility of a nearly zero-energy building with weather predictive control of a convective building energy system. Analysis and comparisons have been conducted on different control strategies to evaluate the influence of the strategies on the energy flexibility. The investigated control strategies of a heating and cooling system include: normal control (reference case), adjustment of set-points for heating and cooling and adjustment of set-points together with a rule-based weather predictive control strategy.
