Supervisory control of an intelligent building in Greece using EIB – KONNEX technology for energy performance improvement

The paper describes the design and control methods for many aspects of energy consumption in a building,mainly lighting and heating / cooling, using the EIB / KONNEX technology. The basic objective is to present a modularly expandable and generally adaptabletechnology in order to progress from the stage of individually designed systems towards to wide range reliable integrated systems. It is shown that this technology provides the most reliable solution for controlling such systems, because of its standardization.Supervisory control and energy management of an intelligent building using EIB KONNEX technologycan be sent by the exploitation of EIB PowerLine Communication. Finally, an energy saving of 50% can be achieved by using this technology.
