Terminology used for demand response within the framework of IEA EBC Annex 84

EBC Annex 84 distinguished between different "action types" and "control types".

Overview demand response types

Combining the two action and control types there can be four different demand response types: 1) Direct Automated (e.g. action and control types are characterised by high reliability; 2) Indirect Automated (e.g. model predictive control in the building reacting to the DHC broadcasted signal), action and control types are characterised by low & high reliability, respectively; 3) Direct Manual (e.g. DHC operator vising the house or sitting in the control room and pressing the button), action and control types are characterised by high & low reliability, respectively; 4) Indirect Manual (e.g. end users changing the settings physically of via using the remote technology (walking in the house, sitting on the sofa and using app) as the reaction to the broadcasted signal), action and control types are characterised by low reliability.

Overview of the methodology and approach

Overview of the methodology and approach which was conducted for the project. The data collection process includes a project and literature review, international questionaire, international stakeholder workshop and expert interviews. The results were then analysed and summarised to produce the final discussion paper
