Description
The present invention relates to an energy management system and method, and more particularly, to an energy management system and method using a room sensor.
In a business facility such as a building or a school, or in a large building, the scale of the management of the building is not enough for a person to manage it. In particular, lighting management such as the lighting of a building or the management of air conditioning and heating facilities are difficult to manually check for each office or classroom. In particular, the management of the lighting lamp and the heating and cooling facilities is different depending on day and night or sleeping time, which is very troublesome. This is because they must be controlled differently when there is a person and when they are not.
Conventionally, energy management systems for buildings and the like are mostly dependent on a small number of manpower such as a building manager or a security guard. Therefore, when the amount of electricity for lighting and heating / cooling that is wasted when there is no person is increased and operated inefficiently There are many.
For example, when there is no person in the office or classroom, it is desirable to shut off the power of lighting or heating / cooling equipment. Even when there are no people, unnecessary waste of electric power becomes very serious if the lighting is turned on or the heating / heating equipment is turned on. When you look at the whole building, it leads to enormous inefficiency.
Therefore, there is a need to automatically and efficiently manage lighting equipment and heating and cooling equipment in a large building. In particular, different controls are required depending on the daytime / nighttime or sleeping time.
Further, in order to perform such automatic energy management, there is a problem that automatic management can not be performed depending on the failure of various sensors. However, it is impossible for the supervisor or security guard to directly check for the failure of the numerous sensors.
On the other hand, even when the sensor operates normally, when energy is not properly sensed, efficient energy management is still required. A method for efficient and accurate sensing is also required.
An object of the present invention is to provide an energy management system using a room sensor.
